Here's a nice spaceflight thing I made:
rem Space Flight Code, by The Darthster!
rem Initialisation
sync on
sync rate 30
hide mouse
autocam off
rem Make a terrain to fly over
make matrix 1,10000,10000,50,50
rem Set up initial positions and angles
x#=5000
y#=200
z#=5000
theta#=0
phi#=0
thruststep#=0.1
rem Set up bullets
dim shot#(10,10)
for i=0 to 9
make object sphere i+1,5
next i
do
rem Mouseclicks control speed
if mouseclick()=1 then thrust#=thrust#+thruststep#
if mouseclick()=2 then thrust#=thrust#-thruststep#
rem Now the joystick button controls speed
`if joystick fire a()=1 then thrust#=thrust#+thruststep#
if keystate(17)=1 then yaxisstrafe#=yaxisstrafe#-thruststep#
if keystate(30)=1 then xaxisstrafe#=xaxisstrafe#-thruststep#
if keystate(31)=1 then yaxisstrafe#=yaxisstrafe#+thruststep#
if keystate(32)=1 then xaxisstrafe#=xaxisstrafe#+thruststep#
rem Shooting

exit
endif

for i=0 to 9
