Spring Client-Compatible Mods

Mods traditionally constitute additions to a game that change the way it works. However, the term Mod when used in connection to the Spring project refers to a game in its own right that runs on the Spring engine. The following mods adhere to the official Mod_specification which ensures that they work with the Lobby Client.
