Since 1.49.131660, you can use an alternative syntax:

object selectionPosition [selectionName, lodName]

lodName: "Memory", "Geometry", "FireGeometry", "LandContact", "HitPoints"

If the given selectionName is not found in the given lod, [0,0,0] is returned.

Do use the filter that comes with Alt Syntax to suit your needs. For example player has 3 selections called "head" and their selectionPositions are quite different from each other: player selectionPosition ["head", "Memory"]; // [0.173798,0.330415,1.37783] player selectionPosition ["head", "FireGeometry"]; // [0.14375,0.206039,1.44689] player selectionPosition ["head", "HitPoints"]; // [0.144257,0.306769,1.53471]
