Plugins are compiled libraries that add extra functionality to AGS, often which cannot be realised, or at least quickly enough, with scripting.

Many plugins have been released over the course of AGS and some older ones are not compatible with the latest AGS version. Also many have been supplanted by [[Script Modules]] or by new features of the AGS engine itself. | Many plugins have been released over the course of AGS and some older ones are not compatible with the latest AGS version.
