I'm making a airplane game and i can't get the plane to rotate 0,0 automatically. Can you help?

My Code:

If leftkey()=1 then Roll object left 1,2
If Rightkey()=1 then Roll Object Right 1,2

What do you mean, "rotate 0,0 automatically"? Is your plane model rotated 90 degrees when you load it or something?

If you want the plane to automatically level itself out after a roll, you need to keep track of how much you have rolled and have it slowly return. Additionally, you'll need some logic to determine if you have rolled more than 180 degrees, in which case it needs to roll in the other direction until level again.

If your situation is that the model itself is not on the right axis, after loading the model rotate it to the correct position and use the fix object pivot command to correct the bad orientation. This is a common problem with some 3D editors.
