There are a mish-mash of clients and servers, here is a list with clients on the left and servers on the right:
- game client/bot -> game server
- game server -> billing server
- directory client/game client/game server -> directory server
Game client
The first widely used client was Subspace, which was cloned by PriitK into Continuum. Other clients include Snrrrubspace.
