Three years later this util is still working great! Thanks!

It's alright. I was hoping it wouldn't use gravity to split the cards though. If you use putObject() we'll be able to split very large decks.

Thanks for the changes ! Really appreciate you listening to the feedback, and adding new photos/videos with the new version

Changed the name to Deck Split and added a bunch of features. Feel free to check it out and use it however you want.

It's a decently easy change to make it a spreader. Instead of going through the whole deck ("deck.getQuantity()") on line 37, you make it use deckerSize.

Also, letting users choose the direction of the spread/split relative to the box would be nice

Cool, I will take a look and fix the rotation thing so it always split them to the right of the red box when you are on the button reading orientation.

But yea, it's not really a spreader, I made it to just cut a big deck into smaller decks which I needed for some games. But you already tweaked it as a spreader, so that's cool. Don't think I will change its behavior.

I actually did add the reset button and changed the functionality for my mod here , if you want to see.

I didn't understand when I first commented that it split the entire deck. It would be nice to have an option to not split (i like the word split better btw) the whole deck but instead only the top cards (essentially making it a spreader, which is what I did in my mod). Some easy-to-tweak numbers at the top to help customize the spacing of the cards would be great.

Also, the cards will only fan out in the same direction, regardless of which way the box is orientated, which I did not expect and had to fiddle in my mod.

@Unreal Ed I think the only thing customizable is the initial deck cut size, which I made to be 2 because it's the minimum.

I will consider adding a button to stack it back to the top.

About the name, I think Deck Spreading is something else, and don't think people would be searching for that. I thought about calling it Deck Splittnig, but this script is basically doing the same as the in-game Deck Cut, but dividing it in any size.

Another thing that would be nice is a button to bring them back to the deck.

Also, I feel like the script should be called Deck Spread rather than cut, because cutting a deck is more of a shuffling/anti-cheating trick in card games

I was just thinking 2 days ago that I wanted exactly that functionality!

You should list what is customizable in the script
