Struggeling with inverselerp and gradients and adding collider to code generated mesh.

Hi, I am currently following a Brackeys tutorial on procedural terrain generation colors. I got to a point where it gives me this error.

IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array. mapgeneration.CreateShape () (at Assets/mapgeneration.cs:108)

mapgeneration.Update () (at Assets/mapgeneration.cs:131)

I am using gradiants to display color on my 108 is the line in create shape . This is the line

colors[iloopedforvertecy] = gradient.Evaluate(height);

In Advance, if someone helps me Greatly appreciated.

                  float height = Mathf.InverseLerp(minterainheight, maxterainheight, 0.5f); //vertices[iloopedforvertecy].z
                  Debug.LogWarning(height);
                  colors[iloopedforvertecy] = gradient.Evaluate(height);
               }
        }
 
 
       
      }
 
     void UpdateMsh()
     {
         mesh.Clear();
 
         mesh.vertices = vertices;
         mesh.triangles = triangles;
 
         mesh.RecalculateNormals();
         
 
         mesh.colors = colors;
     }
 
     void Update()
     {
     CreateShape();
          UpdateMsh();
     }
 
 
   
  
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
 }

I know that my code is messy. Still new to coding and unity in general.

Oh PS. Can somebody please help me add a collider to code generated object as you can see in the code above? I have researched it and the use stuff I can not comprehend.
