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.

Posted May 6, 2013Hey Orion, i'm not sure on something with the plugin, each time a player logs off the server, they lose their bending... What exactly would be the problem? or have you not seen this before?

In the build before this one the flag pvp was the flag that toggled bending off and on, so like pvp: true is bending allowed but now if you have pvp: false and build: allow you can bend and build but you cannot hurt other people

I know it is not a permissions issue because even ops cant use certain bending abilities in wilderness, only war zone. What do u mean by "Or if you don't have the dev build, is it a PvP issue?"

EarthBlast is no different from any other Bending ability and is used extensively on my server without any issues. Maybe it's a permissions problem you're having? Maybe you're trying to select the source from too far away?
EDIT: Or if you don't have the dev build, is it a PvP issue?

Posted May 5, 2013@orion304 Thanks for your response but my problem is, people can build in wilderness, and most other forms of bending work in the wilderness except for earthblast. Players cant use earthblast in wilderness meanwhile people can build in wilderness.

You get the jump potion while sprinting, not right before you jump. So any lag you might see is because the server hasn't applied EITHER potion to you. Also be sure you're not selecting AirScooter while doing it - super jump is disabled with AirScooter selected.
@Birdperson
You see where the bold is getting you, yeah?
Chat issues are prevalent and it's not an easy task to make a chat thing compatible with any other plugin that uses chat.
As for the EarthBlast "issue", Bending cannot be done where building is disabled. This includes factions. Fix it so that building can be done in non-warzone areas, and Bending will follow.

That's not the bug they were referring to. The bug they were referring to is that sometimes the client kinda jitters when the airbender is trying to run fast. This is a "lag" issue - actually just a miscommunication of the server and client, and not something that can be fixed in the code.

Euhm I think a 6 GHz server (4 cores all running it not only 1 like normal which is mostly only for the real big server but I use it asswell) 32 GB of ram lags with 1 person, and TPS is 20 always, the air running + jump is a bug and not lag. (I do have some connection problems but it was LAN on a CAT 6 cable: 1GHz cable.) So I am sure it ain't lag and that something like this happens out of the nowhere at update 1.5.2 is a lag problem, but like you said it happens sometimes: it doesn't happening when standing still, I think LAG makes it less instead of more since the air jump refreshes 0.05 sec before jumping when you run! Also it only refreshes when running and if you run, jump stand still and jump again the 2nd jump is like it should be cause it doesn't get refreshed. I think this is a refreshing problem and not a lag problem. Thanks for reading, np for the good diagnose :D (I did like you said don't say something without checking it more than a few times.)

1) OctopusForm was made to handle melee and multiple people at once, which it does quick well. It also blocks a good deal of attacks. It's a very defensive form with situational use which does work well.
2) It's not a matter of creating the water, it's a matter of figuring out if you're near rain since it's actually client side.

1) I don't really know how to put this but I feel like octopus form is missing something. I feel like it isn't a very good move atm. It would be if it had a more defensive or offensive use. Do u feel the same way about it?
2) I know it talks about rainbending in the faq but couldn't you just use the same mechanics as waterbottles?

Check a few pages back when I posted the notes for the latest dev build.
@monstercat101
That occasionally happens, but never 100% consistently. It's just lag.
@Bca1849
1) Smartly selecting sources is just not something that can or should be done in this plugin, since "smartly" doing it would actually be quite resource intensive. The show has the luxury of knowing how things naturally flow, a plugin does not.
2) I'm very hesitant to do anything with HealingWaters and a bottle for balance reasons. Perhaps if I make HealingWaters only usable outside of combat.
3) In a great many cases, you would want this. I've wanted some ability to raise earth at any odd angle, but I'm not sure if or how I'm going to do this.
4) Those aren't chiblocker abilities, or even Bending abilities and would likely be better suited for another plugin.
@OoDragoNiteoO
Thanks.
@smile916
Yeah that's a bug I'll be looking to correct.
@Syrest101
This issue has been mentioned many times. It's not as easy as you'd think.
@codiaz
I turned airblast toggling levers off again, as that bug you mentioned did happen any time someone had the wrong Bukkit version. I'll fix the sand bug.
