I am working on game where a ball bounces and hits a platform and then bounces right back. Ideally the ball should bounce to exactly the height that it started at. However, in my game the ball slowly keeps bouncing higher and higher. I've looked at the documentation and tried to change all of the physics properties but nothing seems to work.
Any suggestions?

Reduce restitution a little which take control of the bounciness of the physics body. Like this:
ball.physicsBody?.restitution = 0.9
