Thanks! I imagine that we could load the splits into empty 256x256 regions and then create new oars the usual way to get the assets reattached for export.

Three of them are simply visualization tools, but the primary effort script (split.py) will operate on a VAR region OAR file, and split it into multiple standard 256 meter region OAR files. VAR regions are very useful, but they have a few shortcomings. We saw that VAR regions do not scale well, and that normal operations (such as maptile generation, or persistence) could make the larger regions unusable for minutes at a time. Unfortunately, OpenSimulator only provides mechanisms for loading a standard oar into a VAR region. I could not find any mechanism for saving a tile out of a VAR region. So I wrote one. The scripts are released under MIT, and are available at https://github.com/M-O-S-E-S/opensim-oar-utilities. I have only tested these internally, so if anyone would be willing to test them, or provide input, it would be appreciated. Feedback and contributions are welcome. I have successfully run it against a 2x2 VAR region and a 6x6 VAR region on the MOSES Grid. Caveats on this version: - The resultant OAR files are currently asset-less. So they should only be loaded into grids where the assets in question already exist, such as the grid containing the original VAR region. - Assets that are off-region (coordinates outside of the 0-256,0-256 coordinate square) are ignored.
