Not really a bug, and probably not really OpenRCT2's "fault" either, but would there be any intelligent way to help with the rotation anchor point of the camera on parks with a lot of verticality?

^Follow the "Giga Coaster" train as it reaches the top and then turns, and then rotate the view. You'll be looking at water elsewhere.

Research direction
Reproduce the camera behavior using the linked The Island, Karst, and Via Lactea parks, especially while following the Giga Coaster and rotating at high elevation. Determine whether the issue can be addressed as a focused camera-anchor change; done means rotation keeps a useful view of vertically elevated park areas.
