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.

Posted Jan 19, 2013@orion Can you please looking into optimizing the plugin? i would be just speechless how great that could be, like just put out a more lightweight build for the bigger servers with bending, that would be great.
@codiaz even how much ram and anti-lag stuffs you have, bending will start lag it when you get up to like 30 players. So i asked orion if he might could look into fixing that problem and release a more lightweight build for the bigger servers.

You cannot just reinstall YAML, and I don't think the saving thing is inconsistent (if it is, that's not a bug I've ever experienced to fix it). If you must, just switch over to SQL - I will not go any further on how to do this.
@codiaz
AFAIK Orbfuscator is a huge huge proponent of lag.

Posted Jan 17, 2013You got to help me :S My server is under attack. A guy is doing reloggins with 10s of accounts. I dont know how he found them.. NoCheatPlus is blocking them from joining the game. And I posted on their plugin, asking how to ban their ips directly.
But the problem is, when to many people even try to login, even if they see the "logging in" screen, this error comes up, very very frequently:
2013-01-17 20:23:11 [INFO] Disconnecting adem [/82.207.68.142:36234]: Internal server error

When I remove Bending it is comes up very few times. I guess your plugin is checking every login or something. I can I disable it? Because If this error repeats the log file, build up. Somehow the ram is depleated "Out of memory" is thrown and the server crashes.
Thanks!

There are permissions for every command. The permission you might be looking for is bending.admin.rechoose
Probably not on the specific element numbers bit. Might just be best to let server admins or something like that do it.

Well the thing is that not all my players use Bending. I only have it enabled in a seperate world with empty invetory. Just to let RPG lovers taste the fun. I have 8gb ram, and spigot. My processer is i3. But as I said the major plugin i use is Factions.
@Makemyday17
Orion, I have some request if you have time.
1. Could you add a perm so that a player can use /b remove, and clear his element selection. I want this because players want to try out different elements, and I want them to be able to switch every week for example.
2. I have VIP players and want them to be able to choose 2 or 3 elements at the same time. Could you add a perm for this like, bending.choose.3 for 3 elements.
Thanks!

Posted Jan 17, 2013@orkun1675 Hmm, i have examined mine too, everything runs smooth expect bending who creates like 5x more lag. How do you manage to run it smoothly on a 100+ server. I have spigot installed, and another great company is hosting my server, i also have 6GB ram with a great processor. If orion could optimize it i would be just speechless how great that could be, like just put out a more lightweight build for the bigger servers with bending, that would be great.

It does run actually on a 100+ online server. My lag problem was a plugin called TopPvP. I removed that now, and when I examine the threads again, I can say that Bending takes 3times resources then WorlgGuard does. NoCheatPlus is almost bad as Bending.
But it could use some optimization :)
PS: I guess Ill have to get a better CPU

Posted Jan 16, 2013@orion304 Also having that issue, bending is the best plugin that exist right now! And im running a server with 85 people on as most at the moment. But ofc it brings lag, and i can't explain it with words how grateful i would be if you could optimize it and try to lower the use of the CPU. That would be dream come true really! If my words isn't enough im ready to donate a few bucks too if that motivates . I'll do everything, honestly!

Bending is a CPU-intensive plugin that adds animations and functions to Minecraft. It's going to be resource-intensive. Optimization will be the final added thing to Bending, if it happens at all.
Personally I'm thrilled it can even run on a 100 person server.
@hippot
I will certainly try.
@hati11
Download the dev build of bending, as it says above.
