It could be importing the .convexshapes file that is exported from PhsysicsEditor with the above helper scripts. It’s the list of .convexshape files in a single file.

Supporting this would improve workflow of using PhysicsEditor for these kinds of special collision shapes.

I feel it is still important so in the future I will put up some paid bounties for anyone to improve it. You guys were talking about making the currently builtin physics made into a normal extension too, please remember the Chipmunk extension when you try to normalize things for various physics extensions in the editor.

A spline sprite shape + ability to use it for physics would be nice.

So many 2D specific features Defold is missing! They even have the sprite → collision shape right there, and you can even adjust the points on the fly.

True. Can’t recall why I did not use it tbh.
I’m still in the prototype/experiment stage (read having fun!). Will revisit later but even with this I would still have to provide an executable to launch from an editor extension since that API is not available to editor scripts.
