GET GROUND HEIGHT
This command will calculate and return the Y coordinate within the matrix given the X and Z coordinates.
This command can be used to allows 3D objects to traverse the contours of any matrix landscape with
ease. The matrix number should be an integer value. The coordinates should be real numbers.

SYNTAX
Return Float=GET GROUND HEIGHT(Matrix Number, X, Z)

Use it like this:


You see? It just returns the height value of the matrix at a paticular site, so you can place an object on the matrix.
