The main problem is that you are trying to allow sims to cross multiple levels without stairs. Here's a thread which discusses this issue and gives some solutions:
http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=402863
There are two good solutions in that thread: an invisible recolor of a modular stair, or a special fixed stair which has no elevation. Both of these solutions have somewhat odd animations, so try both to see which one works best for you.
The modular stairs will require you to provide an elevation difference of at least 2 clicks while placing the stairs; you can then reduce that elevation difference to 0 clicks for appearance. To change elevations, you can use the constrainFloorElevation cheat, but the GridAdjuster (see my profile) can really help with (nonstandard) 2-click and 0-click elevations. Note that I have no idea whether your retaining walls will accept a modular stair.
Of course, if you'd like to make a 0-height invisible stair with perfect animations, so much the better. I'd download it!
