Hello
I want to cut a Mesh using MeshSplit, but I need to have clean grouping of mesh parts. For some mesh it works but for others it fails, there are too much parts and sometime bad cuts.
See here an example in the grasshopper file. I have the same problem in Rhinoceros.
The cutters are a polyline that is extruded. Gyroid and Polyline generated here by @DanielPiker
I think I was able to make my own tool 
Not bad 7.7 s vs 5 s with Legacy Component.
As asked by @wim here is a file with A mesh, some meshes as cutter and differences with my tool and Rhinoceros.
As many cutters are on the borders there are lots of little meshes. But cutter in R8 seems to still have some difficulties. 3 cuts vs 80 !!!

@laurent_delrieu sorry I missed this topic. Something is wrong here. I’ll gladly have a look.
I’ve added a bugtracker issue here: RH-71888
Hello Giuio,
I just installed Rhino 8 and tested the “new” mesh split. I see that it is very good now when the cutters I provided are joined and welded as it is explained in the BugTracker issue.
I still see an error in one place.
Without welding there are some effects of the tolerance but the results seems always not as intended. There must be 80 Main parts and with a tolerance of
tolerance = 0.1 there are 74 Main parts and 496 meshes
tolerance = 0.01 there are 74 Main parts and 438 meshes
Thank you for your kind words 
Can you send me the exact example that you are using, and that shows that error? I will then file a new bugtracker issue for it.
Unfortunately, “tolerance” of mesh booleans is not the same as “welding tolerance” or, actually, “vertex alignment tolerance” (which is what I think is happening here? Please let me know if it’s not the case).
When we align vertices, we simply put points that are nearby close to one another. Even that operation has many nuances, for example: when rows of points fall, within groups, outside tolerance, but not when taken in chained pairs. However, that operation is generally simpler. For mesh booleans, “tolerance” can be thought as “the amount of space for which a hit/miss misinterpretation is irrelevant”. So the two concepts do not overlap.
Here is the file with 2 meshes.
The errors happens if tolerance is 0.01 not 0.001. The error is near Point at (60.898,30.753,0.000).

In my tool in Nautilus I use curve boolean per face so the tolerance has an effect surely different as in your algorithm.
