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.

No new moves need to be added we have plenty for each element, and Orion does not plan to add anymore. The main thing needed is more options in the config file which he is working on. For example being able to change Torrent/OctopusForm/ and FireBlast's Tnt damage. Orion is also in school for his Doctorate I believe, so I wouldn't necessarily say sleepy...

Posted Jun 6, 2013Is octopusform getting replaced or is it doing damage again since it stopped being an offensive move and barely blocks attacks and can't knock attacks back. Also since it became useless when it stopped dealing damage to players. Lastly when is the server updating (I know it's only for comments/ questions on bending, but still can I get a little insight on when it'll be at the current version)

No it is a plugin interfering with it or spigot, I updated all my plugins with bending than it didn't work anymore, so what I did is delete the bending and get the one before this, still got it so I think it is with the latest build of spigot/bukkit

Posted Jun 2, 2013Minor Issue, Recently some players on my server(only like 2 or 3) complained that when ever they log off and come back on after awhile their bending abilites are cleared and they have to repick their bending. Im not exactly sure why only a few people have this problem and not others but i still want it fixed ASAP.

The main laggy abilities are AirBubble, WaterBubble, and then PhaseChange. Torrent can be a bit bad at times but since torrent is an ability that only lasts for 5 or so seconds it tends to clear itself out pretty well. AirBubble and WaterBubble can last consistently for as long as the user wishes. I noticed that on my server many new Water and Air benders would sit in the ocean building their bases while using these abilities.
AirBubble and WaterBubble have to manage an intense amount of blocks at the same time which ends up causing intense CPU processing. PhaseChange causes lag overtime aswell, Orion said the programming might be able to be improved on it. The lag does not seem to be caused by the initial changing between water blocks and ice blocks. Each of the ice blocks uses processing to determine when the blocks need to thaw.
@orion304
Please correct me if I am wrong on those assumptions. What are some of the negatives about letting the ice blocks thaw naturally instead of checking? Would it look too griefed with random ice blocks all over the place?

I removed citizens, yet the issue persists :(
@Orion
On a side note, is there anyway we could get in game commands for changing the day/night multiplier in the config for water/firebenders,I know this is a long shot, but I thought it would be cool to have some automated events like sozins comet and an eclipse.
When someone is an earthbender in enemy faction land there screen gets spammed with the 'edit terrain' msg's until they lagg out(tremorsense seems to be the culprit), same with an airspouter.
