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.

Check and change the config for 'Reverse-Earthbending-Check-Time:'
@justinwl
Make sure you have the latest dev build which allows flying. If you don't want players binding abilities to items tell them to type /b bindmode slot, or /b clear. It seems you should read the commands page and the wiki, this will also show you how to become avatar. But put simply, /b b avatarstate.

You're misreading. The most recent version on this page is 1.0.1-1. NOT 1.1.0. The proper version is still being approved by bukkit. Download the dev build instead.

Yeah, it was a long time coming! And the flight rework is also what's responsible for giving Airbenders the credit for killing someone with fall damage.

Ah, oops! The file I uploaded to Bukkit is proper, but I forgot to push the change to github, so the dev build was behind. It should be fixed now!

I installed Factions 2.0, mcore 6.5 and Bending 1.1.0 on spigot 1.6.2 build 1047, however I am getting this in my console and bending doesn't work: http://dev.bukkit.org/paste/8240/
Unsure if you meant support for Factions 2.0 for bukkit 1.5.2, or am I doing something wrong?

It will not convert, it will reset everyone's Bending. And Physics.

Thanks for the explanation, that makes a lot of sense as to how you fixed the problem with people choosing elements and it causing a pretty large delay on the server. The change log looks great, you mention changing the way you save Bending. Will the BendingPlayers file automatically convert, or will the data be lost and people will have to rechoose? Just out of curiosity what are you getting your PHD in?

I'll post the changelog for 1.1.0 right above this post, so everyone can see all the work that's gone into it in the past several months.
As for the RAM usage, I was expecting that. No matter what, the file needs to be accessed. The old way the file was stored meant that any time anyone did anything with bending, the plugin reads the file. The way things were done, I took all the heavy lifting throughout the uptime and moved it all to the beginning, when the server loads. That way people don't notice the lag :)

Posted Jul 29, 2013@orion304 Where can I find the changelog for v1.1.0, do I have to wait for bukkit to approve your update and then it'll show it? A few months ago when you rewrote the way information is saved in the BendingPlayer file I noticed a pretty significant increase in the amount of ram it takes to use the plugin. The load time is also much longer because of how large the file can be. Were you expecting an increase of Ram usage and load times? On the bright side it is much more stable and worth it, but I'm just curious.

Posted Jul 29, 2013I have uploaded a brand new dev build, which is rather well tested already! Huge highlight of this dev build: /fly support with other plugins! Also, fixed the Factions issue with factions 2.0.x!
Additionally, I have released v1.1.0 to the public. Bukkit will of course take its sweet time approving the file, but once it does you will all have access to the latest changes without having to download the dev build!
The changelog is extensive for 1.1.0, but I recommend you read it. I probably left some things out too, but oh well. Additionally, I've decided to call this a "release" instead of a beta. Long gone are the days where this plugin was riddled with bugs and got new features every day. The development progress from here is slow and steady - no new abilities, just tweaks and reworks here and there. More options for server owners, bug fixes, etc.
Since people can't read, hopefully this released version will create a huge boost to the plugin popularity!
@ninja5555
It definitely is. So...
@monstercat101
Just put that in the dev build :)
@MinecraftEvolution
Dev build.
@smiggle0404
Bending for the longest time wouldn't let ANY plugin /fly.

so is the fly issue a conflict problem between the bending problem and essentials? :I
