Rotate entity pitch towards camera, despite yaw

One of my weird challenges again: If you can imagine a rectangle box being rotated around yaw, how can you get it to pitch towards you despite it's yaw? usually, if you rotate pitch after yaw it'll be aligned by the yaw - a local rotation...

How about using the DeltaPitch command?

Coo... wonder what that is?

Could you not use alignToVector to align Y axis to the vector.
