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 Aug 8, 2012Okay, so as most of you know, the waterbenders have lost the walk on water ability. The problem with losing this ability is that we were able to create more water sources allowing waterbenders to protect themselves and fight easier. I know this was basically a glitch with walk on water, but we kind of need an ability to flood. Water is pretty much the weakest bending type on servers without blood bending. In deserts it's a death trap, in fields we can fight, but if we plant bend to create sources, it gets rid of all other plants around, making it harder to fight while you're in a waterblock's current. If we run through a forest, it's hard for us to plant bend the leaves, sometime it will move, other times it will create water, and disappear. Oceans and snow biomes are easy for us to fight in, but who's going to even attempt to attack a waterbender in one of those? We are super weak in all but two biomes where as every other element can kill us easily, even air. They can use a sword and run after us... So please Orion, add some way for us to spread water.

Almost all that things have already been suggested and I try to make a plot for you:
orion wants to make only 9 skills for element, and no more, because there are only 9 slots; so no more water skills, even if it would be cool!! (I suggested the water octopus skill too :P)
The list of pantbendable block, from what I understood, will be implemented (already suggested by myself :P)
About the last part: Speaking about the useless water-state of the skill waterwall, I suggested to make it bounce back projetiles and orion liked the idea, from what I remember, so I think it will be implemented too...
You're welcome :D

The new development build should work. Not quite sure what's stopping it from generating a config, if you must, use an old version, let it run and generate the config, throw the new dev build in, let it update the config.
I haven't had any issues with the plugin generating new features (I've been using the same config for a month, as updates come it just updates the config). That is an annoying route to take, longer than it should, but make sure you have the newest dev build (Released this morning) and hopefully things work out.
Edit: The Development build works with 1.3.1 :)

Posted Aug 8, 2012What about reverting ice and snowblocks? I made a recreation of the northern water tribe but waterbenders kind a ruin it, by bending snow and ice blocks. And if a person freezes me with wave, and I free myself with freezemelt, the edges of the wave-ice-ball underground will be removed too (if there's snow). So if someone uses freeze-wave on me while standing on snow, and I free myself with freezemelt, the edges of the giant ice ball, which go underground too, will melt, but the problem is underground. There will be a hole. ( sort of, not like a a TNT hole but more the edges of the ball you know).
A few tips :
water octopus ability
water burst (shoots water in every direction)
water explosion (shoots an amount of water under you targets feet into the air and freezes him.)
Water whipe ( have a look at katara)
Attacking with ice?
Killerwave (rising a giant killer wave out of the ocean,does nothing special but just cool :D like a giant wall of water that looks like a tsunami or something but you do not shoot it, "show them the power of water Aang" thing.)
A list of plantbendable items (like earth)
And what about stopping/turning back someone's basic attack? Like fireball (already possible) Earthblast & watermanipulation? Like stopping it. That would be helpful, a way to defend yourself if you're fighting against your own element. And also useful in pro-bending.

Don't have an ETA. And you can put doors and bars in the config.

I plan to add distance. It does 0 damage, just to let people know they're bloodbent. Don't know if I'll configure that.

(This all regarding the dev build, at to reiterate what others have said)
Bloodbending exists, it is default op only. Bind it like any other ability. Lightning exists, anyone can use it. Chiblocking can be chosen (by anyone) with /bending choose chiblocker
Bloodbending has nothing in the config yet. What would you want to change?

Only ops can bloodbend without permissions. I highly recommend using a permissions plugin. bPermissions or PermissionsEX, I would stay away from anything else.
/bending choose chiblocker /bending bind Bloodbending (If waterbender)

PreciousStones is not tested at all. It should work though. MySQL should create the table so I'm not sure why you are getting that error. I'll see if I can reproduce it. Edit: Can't reproduce.. Did you just reloaded the config without restarting the server?
