yaw = Current Model Yaw Position which is the left/right angle (Y angle)
ideal yaw = Desired Yaw position (Not used by engine but used by a Bot DLL for example to slowly change actual yaw towards desired yaw)

pitch = Current Model Pitch Position which is the up/down angle (X angle)
ideal pitch = Desired Pitch position (Again not used by the engine but used by the user program to smoothly change the pitch towards the desired pitch)
