getPosition() EASY QUESTION

I repeat myself a ton.
Watch in full screen, 720p.

Any advice is appreciated

Use own.position instead.

You can check out the gameobject API here: http://www.tutorialsforblender3d.com/GameModule/ClassKX_GameObject.html

edit: you also have own.localPosition and own.worldPosition depending on what you want

Hope this helps
Ex.

Own.position is deprecated (no longer to be used), so do as Excalaberr mentioned and use either localPosition or worldPosition. There’s also local and world variants of scaling and orientation.

You should look up functions/methods on an API documentation site.

Here’s my favourite one:
Python API Doc

Good luck!
