Im trying to creat a feature line from points and when i snap to the point it gives me a zero elevation - is there a way to accept the point elevation?

If they are cogo points and you are snapping to the NODE and still getting a 0 elevation check you variable OSNAPZ and make sure it is set to 0 and not 1. If it is a regular point object with no elevation you can type the elevation you want on the command line after snapping to it.

Check the command line

Also check you point style. Point styles have a 3D Geometry tab, set the display mode to "Use Point Elevation"

If it's a Civil 3D point (and not a vanilla AutoCAD point), try the Point Object snap ( 'PO ).

You could also try ( 'PN ) to enter point numbers instead of picking them.  For example (103,105, 106-109, 111).

Either method will require you to press Enter to accept the elevation for each point.
