This blender addon will allow you to slice any selected mesh based on a defined distance and axis. After hitting the "Slice & Separate" button, it will slice the object and separate out each slice as its own object.
This can be especially useful when using light baking / the GPU Lightmass in Unreal Engine. So instead of having one big mesh that will then require a very large lightmap texture, you can work with smaller meshes and smaller lightmap texture resolutions.

After the installation, there will be a new side panel named "Slice & Separate".

Steps
1. Select Object (Mesh)
2. Set axis (... or detect the axis - axis will be parallel to the longest side of the object)
3. Set slicing distance
4. Hit the button!

Future
I am already working on Version 1.0.1 (Free Update) - which will include:
• Additional slider for choosing a number of slices
• A custom field in the addon settings for setting the default distance
... and I'm planing on also implementing the support of slicing multiple objects at once in a future version.

Feedback and new ideas are always welcome! So please, hit me up :)
