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.

Yes, my comment is now in the page 4 -.-''
Well, ok, another idea, I thought about 2 chiblockers that fight each other, or a chiblocker that attacks a mob, in this cases they would have only the punch bonus; what about adding a paralize skill for this cases, and making that they can do that only if they hit behind so they will not be overpowered (the same thing can be done with chiblocking)?

I did, on this page the only comment by Cecelo is the plantbending one.
Perhaps it got bumped a page. Yep, bumped a page. Why bukkit doesn't have better comment linking is beyond me.
Well my recent comment regarding light should answer most of that. Additionally, I won't do fire around the firebender as there is no way for me to prevent people from being caught on fire from it (there is no event to catch that, sadly).

You just linked to the comment I replied to, regarding plantbending ids.
@Klofno1
What Botz147 said is correct, this is what we initially tried to do, but this is -way- cleaner. Also, firebenders make temporary torches now, not glowstone. So there's your realism. I kind of like the glowstone for tremorsense, it gives you this feel that you're using the rock to see.

That's what we originally wanted to do with illumination. The problem is that there's no easy and clean way to do it. I tried TorchArrow and as I expected the light was a bit buggy for me. The cleanest way to do it is using blocks

I thought that because making appear the glowstone block is a bit buggy, even if it is the easiest and less laggy way, in fact, orion had to solve a bug because firebenders could open chests using illumination...

only the light would be more realistic yes, maybe that's something for the update after this one because I think orion has already in mind what he's going to do

Nope, no idea. And those are not the new abilities, no.
@Cecelo126
Yeah, sorry I thought I replied (obviously I did not). Definitely a good idea for a config option for that. I turned off plantbendable wood for grief purposes, and because you've got loads of leaves on trees to plantbend instead :P
