How to Join Two Colliding SKSpriteNodes

Question

If I have two SKSpriteNode objects, one circle and one square, traveling at each other at high speeds, is there a way to make them stick to each other and stop moving when they collide? Typically, didBeginContact method is not fast enough at detecting a collision to set their physics bodies' velocities equal to zero before they've already bounced apart by ~30 pixels. Is there a way I can join the two SKSpriteNodes ? Thanks (:

Answer 1

Maybe this is going crazy, but my initial idea is to play around with magnetic fields. You could make a magnetic field and give one of the bodies some charge and then the physics simulation will naturally try and hold those two things together.
