Official Bending Server
IP - minecraftTLA.us.to

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 Jan 21, 2013@Makemyday I know you use linux and to make your server alot faster you could try to go to this site and try it out: http://www.electricmonk.nl/log/2011/07/22/minecraft-server-optimization/ I am going to do this aswell but i need new RAM disks of 8GB :P because my server is 12 GB now so :D but anyways if you want zero lag make the server slots to 50 instead of 108 because with an average of 60 people and lag is not the best thing you can do for the members (This also make donators happy because they can go on when server is full (so more donators)), Don't react to this post I don't want conversations about it, I only want to help!

Either download works for the current version of bukkit (Bending v1.1.0 and Bending v1.0.7-1).
@Buckoleli0521
You can host Bukkit servers on mac, use google. This plugin works regardless of OS, so long as you have Bukkit.

This is not the place. This is the forum for the plugin, not any server. Only way to handle a hacker is for me to catch him/her when I'm online.

Posted Jan 20, 2013Orion there's a hacker on the main server, his name is dannyhammer85. he has been making threats to other factions, including my own, to disband them. He also has flymod. The other players on the server can agree with this claim. I ask that he is banned or punished for the crimes he has committed to the people and myself on the server.

Posted Jan 20, 2013@orion304 Sorry for my stupid spams, i fully understand your situation and if you optimize it, it will be hard to add more stuffs. But as it is right now, those bigger bending servers with 40+ players just falls heavy. Because the bending can't really keep up when everyone is bending and so on.

Fair enough. Well, I think my players will prefer bending over basic flight anyway!

Your favorite permissions plugin can handle per-world bending just fine. Just negate the bending.* node for that world.
This will not help the anti-hack workaround, there's currently no working around that workaround :P

Posted Jan 19, 2013Such an awesome plugin. This is exactly what my server needs and I will definitely donate $20+ if we end up using it.
I would like to make one request - Can we have a setting so that bending can be enabled/disabled per world?
I've got a survival flight world that will not work due to the anti-hack workaround. Also, I've got a world for dungeons/arenas where I'd want it disabled.
Anyway, thanks for making this. It's so much better than everything else I've seen for skills.

You mean the dev build, which it says immediately in the line of "HELP! It isn't working!"
Or perhaps the update that came out yesterday, that's 1.0.7 but repurposed for the most recent version of Bukkit?
@Makemyday17
I answered right here, in the first comment about optimization. Regardless, spamming this forum isn't the thing you should do.
It feels like I don't even like to work on it? Have you downloaded the dev build, or checked out the patch notes, for example, for the dev build released on December 19th? Just because I'm working on getting my Ph. D. in physics and having a real life doesn't mean that I don't like this plugin which I have devoted a large portion of my time to previously.
Sorry for my shortness, but it is a bit irritating that you feel like spamming is justified. And what you're asking for, optimization, obfuscates the code making it difficult to add onto (bad when something is in beta), and in many, many cases leads to only an improvement of performance by something like 10% - not enough to ramp up your player capacity substantially. And a "light-weight" version of Bending... doesn't really sound like something many people will be interested in, since light-weight would imply nearly no animations, one of the things I think really draws people to Bending.
Yes, I appreciate the positive feedback, I know you like it (I've been to your server, it's on the server list).
@orkun1675
Yes, Bukkit does seem to behave weirdly with that [Bending] tag. I think I've found the fix, but I haven't yet implemented it.

Posted Jan 19, 2013Hi Orion,
It's me again. Just want to know something. When I go over the the server logs I sometimes/frequently see odd things with bending,
For example It says [Bending] Kicked for flying, or [Bending] something a user said.
It's like [Bending] tag is taking over the place of the plugin or the player name. It's odd bu I don't know how to explain it. I came over it 4-5 times in a 2day log, when I wasn't even looking.
Could you check it out please?

It never did. You have to hit their spout with your WaterManipulation to disable it.
