Official Bending Server
IP - minecraftTLA.us.to

If that server is full (and it usually is), feel free to check out any of the other "official" servers.
Dev build
Development builds of this project can be acquired at the provided continuous integration server. These builds have not been approved by the BukkitDev staff. Use them at your own risk. This link has been removed because Bukkit doesn't like Github as a CI server.
Minecraft: The Last Airbender is a Minecraft plugin for a Bukkit server. It is designed for Survival Multiplayer, and allows players to choose an element to bend as the benders do in the world of Avatar (the stage of Avatar: The Last Airbender and its sequel The Legend of Korra).
Some quick notes: I will warn you that you will not be able to do everything they do in the show. There are limitations both in Minecraft and in Bukkit that prevent such extravagance. In the details of each discipline you can see exactly what you can do. As such, the description of the bending disciplines is a little altered to reflect their role in the world of Minecraft: The Last Airbender.
Features
- Play as a bender and choose which type you would like to be.
- Battle other users and see who is the best of the best.
- Compatible with WorldGuard, Factions, PreciousStones, GriefPrevention, and CreeperHeal. (Many more plugins will be added to this list)
- Nothing is required client-side
- Permissions support!
Bending
Users may bend water, earth, fire, air, or can go with being a chiblocker.. You may pick which type of bender you would like to be with the command: /bending choose [water/air/earth/fire/chi]. You may only choose one, with the exception of the Avatar, and you may never change it so be careful in your decision.
Waterbending
- Specializes in maneuverability in and on the water.
- Oceans are perfect for water benders.
- Techniques range from shooting water that do damage, freezing lakes, or even pushing enemies back with powerful waves.
- This bending style is a mixture of offensive and defensive.
- Water bending opens up many options in bodies of water that are otherwise closed to the other disciplines.
Earthbending
- Specializes in manipulating the earth around them.
- Any area which contains land is perfect for earth benders.
- They have the abilities to pull columns straight up from the earth, drill their way through any mountain and launch themselves through the air.
- This bending style, like water bending, is a mixture of offensive and defensive.
- Earth benders do not take fall damage as long as they land on the ground.
Firebending
- Specializes on destruction and incineration.
- Any environment, besides on any bodies of water, is perfect for them.
- They may create rings of fire on the ground, shoot lines of fire, and even create exploding fireballs.
- This bending style is pure offensive, and very little mobility/defense.
- Fireball is the only ability they may use that does not require any solid ground beneath them.
Airbending
- Specializes in mobility & defense.
- The land is the ideal place for airbenders, although they may also bend over the water.
- Bending air allows you to use wind to blast things away, forming a shield of air around you, or using a tornado to lift you, or your opponent, off of their feet.
- This bending style is perfect for pacifists and explorers for they lack any raw damage output, but make up for it with their utility and speed.
- Choosing air as your element increases your overall speed, decreases the rate of hunger and disables fall damage.
Chi Blocking
- Specializes in bare handed combat.
- Move faster, jump higher, take less fall damage.
- Can block someones chi, stopping them from Bending for a short period of time.
- Abilities range from Higher Jumps, Faster Punches, and Paralysis of enemies.
HELP! It's not working!
This is a Bukkit plugin, not a single player mod. It will never be a single player mod. Go to the Bukkit Wiki to set up your own server. You can play on it just like you would single player, and it requires nothing more than setting it up.
If anything is not working, look around for a development build of Bending.
Development progress
School has picked back up, so plugin development will be very intermittent at best. I've done away with the ordered releases, and will most likely be keeping 1.0.7 the "official" version until I release it as 1.1.0. It's a jump, I know, but if I were forced to stick to a schedule, the plugin would never get done. This is because there are things I like coding and want to code now, and I shouldn't have to wait just because I have something else planned for the version.
As such, there is no ETA on the release. The dev build will of course be updated as I add features, but 1.1.0 will only be officially released when everything is completed, and that could take a very long time.

I've never dealt with Smart Moving, so I can't help you. Sorry.
@combsb97
The dev build works with Java JRE6 and JRE7, so there's no issue there.
Airbenders already jump higher than chi blockers, and run faster than them.

Posted Sep 28, 2012Dear Orion,
i have jre7, i was wondering if the reason the bending in the latest dev build is caused by my version of java installed. also i was wondering if u could make airbenders jump higher than chi blocker or the same hieght as chi blockers, it just makes it more realistic in my eyes, thanks though for an amazing plugin:)

Posted Sep 28, 2012Hi all, I like so much this plugin, which makes bending playable in a wonderful way. Recently I added on my server the smart moving plugin, and I noticed that, while everything was going fine, the tornado ability was bugged: when I press the shift key, my player jumps in the air, some smoke particles are visible, but then he falls immediately, so I can't fly in my tornado. Because of this, with smart moving plugin, tornado is an useless ability. In order to make things work do I need to change some config in the plugin or is there an incompatibility? If this, could you fix it?
Thanks for all your magnificent work.
P.S. Sorry for my bad english. I'm still learning it :)

great, thx
another thing, i was wondering if you could set different permissions for each eartbendable block, so we could distinguish the level of a bender. In the animes, not every earthbender can bend metal

That bug has been fixed.
To change the messages, you have to edit anything after the : in the file. If you're adding a new language, simply put the letters for that language in a list for "supported languages", run the plugin, and the file will populate itself.
If you've got a different language, you'll need to change it with /bending language to see the differences.
A full tutorial will come out when my translators have done more and I know that it's all 100% working.

Blaze by default extinguishes itself quickly. If FireBlast is your issue, look in the config. In the FireBlast section, there should be a revert option there too if you want that fire to be temporary.

Posted Sep 26, 2012Is there anyway to have fire extinguish itself after a certain amount of time? The real issue is that firebenders keep setting half of my world on fire causing nothing but massive amounts of lag, I have disabled fire spread globally in worldguard but I just can't seem to get it to wipe the fire after a certain amount of time. :s
Wonderful new update btw.

Consult your permissions plugin for restricting permissions to worlds and negating nodes. When negating the node, you can simply negate bending.*, and no one can bend a thing. Doing that in only a selected world depends on your permissions plugin.
Also, I'm not going to add sets or anything. Each set means having ANOTHER ability you have to bind, so as you increase the number of sets, you decrease the number of available slots, which increases the number of sets you need, and so forth. Since something server-side can't recognize anything else a player can do, you'll have to resort to a client-side macro mod or something.

Maybe Sets, so that you can have an ability called "SetToggle" and it will take up one slot. But it will allow you to have sets, so that you have a water set, fire set, earth set, air set, and custom set.

Ah! I see I neglected making the config spit that out too. I have fixed that bug, and also fixed a few other bugs. Re-downloading the dev build should take care of it :D
