I am creating a game engine using the JBox2D physics engine. It only allows you to create polygon fixtures up to 8 vertices, To create a body with more than 8 vertices, you need to create multiple fixtures for the body.
My question is, How can I split the polygons a user creates into smaller polygons for JBox2D?
Also, what topology should I use when splitting the polygons and why?
(If JBox2D can have up to 8 vertices, why not split polygons into 8 per polygon)
