Ever since the underlying Lua interface code was opened up to VO's player base, Vendetta Online features the possibility for users to write their own plug-ins, affecting everything from the game's interface to in-game communication to game mechanics.
 
Over the time, some of these plug-ins have become an almost essential part of the gameplay.
