okay i know about the randomize matrix command but can i just have it randomize it one time every time i run the program it randomizes it again in a different way i dont want to manually fix the height of the matrix i want it to do it once and keep it like it is.is there a way to somehow randomize it but then stop it from doing it every time i run it.

Uhm do a randomize matrix, use get matrix height(x,y) to get the height of the matrix at a huge lot of places, put the data in an array and save the array. Then load the data and use for...next to set the height.

Whatever I did I didn't do it!

In the code snippets section there's a function for using a bitmap to set matrix heights. You could fill a bitmap with random colours and then use it as a heightmap.
