SpriteKit's SKPhysicsBody with polygon helper tool

Question

I wonder if there is a tool that could be used for easy generation of complex physics bodies in SpriteKit. I would like to have a volume based physical bodies with polygon-t

This is an adaptation of Xelt's answer in Swift 3.

    
    
    

    

    
    
        

            
SKPhysicsBody Path Generator
            
Want to use SKPhysicsBody(polygonFromPath: path) easier way like me? Here with a small helper for easier path drawing, hope it help others too.
            

                

                    
Basic Instruction
                    

                        
Drag and drop the sprite image into drop zone.
                        
Start drawing path by clicking on coordinates.
                    
                
                

                    
Some Rules / Known Issue
                    

                        
Path need to be as a convex polygonal path with counterclockwise winding and no self intersections. The points are specified relative to the owning node’s origin. (documentation link)

             Retina? (please check before declaring path)
            



            
            

            
X:0 Y:0
            


            
Output
let sprite = SKSpriteNode(imageNamed: "codeImgName")

let offsetX = sprite.size.width * sprite.anchorPoint.x
let offsetY = sprite.size.height * sprite.anchorPoint.y

let path = CGMutablePath()


path.closeSubpath()

sprite.physicsBody = SKPhysicsBody(polygonFromPath: path)
