Official Bending Server

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.

How exactly do you not experience abusable things with that then? Like permanently trapping a waterbender in EarthGrab, or an AirBender in a frozen Surge?
@codiaz
Yeah, check my edit on the comment below.

Do you know any way to make that possible (like changing something in worldguard)

And I told you I cannot do that.
Edit: I'll be more specific. WorldGuard, period, says yes you can build or no you cannot. Bending respects that yes/no. There's no way to look at "flags", or anything like that. Bending is governed by WorldGuard itself, not by WorldGuard's flags.

Ye but Orion i told you an idea to make 3 things in one flag so you can let admins make the choice if they want it or not.

I use more than one protection plugin in those cases, if you still want to use world guard for whatever reason, just allow build, but then overlay the area with another plugin like residence, antishare, there are many out there. That way they can bend, but not touch any blocks or grief. I have a great bending only mob arena that way.

That's correct. And it's very good that this is the case - otherwise you could be permanently trapped by EarthGrab or a frozen wave.
@MonoCrime
As codiaz rightly said, use HeatControl.

Wow I want that in my probending arena! :P Lucky guy but anyways i know there is a permission what makes that group ignore flags i only don't know which, but did you try to reinstall worldguard and bending? Maybe one of them is out of date to check that first try to set pvp flag to deny if they still can bend you have right bending if not you have a previous version of the plugin itself than install the newest it is under the vid on this page (development build) and else check if worldguard is outta date with /wg version (i have 644-6df9c36 (i don't know if this is on every server)) to test it but anyways install the newest worldguard!

So I use worldguard and if I want it how I told ya I have to change that in the Worldguard plugin? And not telling you (because you can't change that)? I think it is your plugin that makes is telling bukkit what can and what can't be done in a region for the build flag and not that worldguard because that simply is for building or not building... but anyways good plugin and I´ll try to make those regions in another way if noone wants to help me :P

Posted Oct 21, 2012Again, I have personally checked most of these things. Make sure people can't build and then they can't bend. There are some exceptions to this, as I have now allowed harmless bending to be able to be used in no-bending zones (like AirSpout, WaterSpout, etc), but the bending abilities that are allowed are ones that cannot possibly grief people or land.
Fireburst, on the other hand, and Catapult, I know for a fact are not usable in protected areas, I've tested this numerous times. Check your region protection.
@Makemyday17
Because people can or cannot build in those zones. As I have said, bending is fully tied to building. Enable/disable building via factions, and bending follows. To change it, configure factions.
@codiaz
Changing what you want to be changed isn't my plugin, but whatever plugin you're using for the building flag.
As for flag customization, this quickly becomes messy, non-user-friendly and abusable.
@TheSwordHunter
It's in the config.
@monstercat101
For some reason, the prefix [Bending] appears sometimes in things that aren't caused by bending. This is one of those cases. Bending does absolutely nothing to kick players or check for cheating.

Ye I also have that problem but they can't bend all bending else try /region info if you are in the region and check if the region is there or maybe you forgot the hights ... but do you use a permission plugin?

Euhm in your map plugins you see a map bending you see a config file in there if you turn chat and colors off then you don't have avatar prefix anymore when you make a PEX, groupmanager or essentialsgroupmanager file and you make there some prefixes your server will use them so you can change your prefix but for simply turning it off do colors and chat to false
