# modelToWorldWorld

*Command · Positions · Arma 3 v1.70*

Locality: arguments **global**

## Description

Converts position from object model space to world space in [PositionASL](../topics/Position.md#positionasl) format from the object's centre position.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> For [scaled objects](../commands/setObjectScale.md), the relative position will first be [multiplied](../commands/vectorMultiply.md) by the object scale.
>
> For example, if the object scale is 2, `_obj modelToWorldWorld [0,1,0]` will be offset **2 meters** from the model center (`[0,0,0]`).

## Syntax

```sqf
obj modelToWorldWorld modelPos
```

**Parameters:**

- `obj`: [Object](../topics/Object.md)
- `modelPos`: [PositionRelative](../topics/Position.md#positionrelative)

**Returns:** [PositionASL](../topics/Position.md#positionasl) - **the model's centre** (see [getPosWorld](../commands/getPosWorld.md))

## Examples

### Example 1

```sqf
private _playersFrontWorld = player modelToWorldWorld [0,1,0];
```
