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.

Never, no. That's not how Bending works.

Perhaps you could make a move that requires you to be both a waterbender and an earthbender.

Exactly, only Avatars have shown lavabending. And waterbenders don't bend liquid, they bend water (remember they also bend ice and steam, so DEFINITELY not liquid). Lava is made of super hot (fire) earth (earth), so it makes sense that only Avatars can bend it, and I'm not making avatar-only moves.

Well I've seen multiple scenes where avatars (in their avatar state) make lava burst up from volcanoes, but the part where they move it like fire, maybe not so much. Maybe the waterbenders can do it actually, since lava is technically a liquid.

No, I will not create an earthbending move to create ravines.
When did non-Avatar Firebenders ever bend (not cool, but bend) lava?
@nathank33
Shockwave does seem to go a bit slowly. If it's from Factions (which I wouldn't doubt) then there's nothing I can do about it, really.
@fireant456
You are doing something wrong which I cannot debug for you. Bending works 100%.
@KingPsychopath
I do not have the time or skill to debug everyone's issues with permissions - all I can say is that everything people want can be done permissions side, easily. @zanasxx
That wouldn't be OP in the slightest... /sarcasm

Yes. Consult your permissions plugin on how to use it.
@justinwl
Use permissions. If you don't know how, look it up on their plugin page. There are tutorials everywhere.

Posted Aug 22, 2013@_Magno20_ You can add the permission -bending.* to disable the bending plugin for a single group. So log into your server and use the command /mangaddp, it allows you to directly add a permission to a group (if you don't like using a yml editor). So say the name of the group I wanted to disable bending for was called NonBender. I would use the command " /mangaddp NonBender -bending.* " All groups that Inherit NonBender will not be able to use bending either.
@codiaz That is with full 20 TPS on both of the servers that I've tested it with. It starts at 20 TPS no problems at all, then the second I use the circular shockwave it will drop down to 14-15 TPS. Keep in mind this only happens when the Faction plugin is in, I have no problems whatsoever when it is out. Codiaz are you running on a 1.5.2 server with 1.5.2 Factions and Bending? Or have you fully updated everything?

You could try using permissions bukkit to create a permission group with the bending permissions and and make the bending permissions only allowed for that group.

Euhm, what is your TPS? If it is below 20 when you use it than it is cause of that do /tps or /gc when you have essentials.
@fireant456
Does it work?

I have this on my server, you have to negate all the default permissions, and then you can add them back as you like. For example, if you use groupmanager, -bending.water.waterbubble Do this for all perms you don't want your members to have access to.

Posted Aug 20, 2013@orion304 Simply put. In reply to your reply :P, I mean for me the permission nodes do not work as in everything is default. If I start a clean server It still does this. If you have any time to help me personally. Skype : Rovaldo5 Server IP : Mc.Aeonblox.Com If you don't as I know you are busy as it is, I will continue to try to debug the problem.
