Description:: Returns the provided object's, model centre position in render version in format PositionASL, rather than transformed boundingCenter or LandContact vertices.
Groups:: Object Manipulation Render Time Scope

Syntax:: getPosWorldVisual object
Parameters:: object: Object
Return Value:: Array - format PositionASL the model centre's position (see getPosWorld) in render scope

Example 1:: _obj setPosWorld getPosWorldVisual _obj;
Example 2:: _groundObj modelToWorldVisualWorld [0,0,0] isEqualTo getPosWorldVisual _groundObj; //true
Example 3:: Wave height under a boat:_h = ((boat modelToWorldVisual [0,0,0]) vectorDiff getPosWorldVisual boat) select 2;
