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.

No, I can't tell you about everyone else's plugins. And a 0.01% chance isn't true - there's no randomness. I need to know under what conditions a bug occurs and I can fix it.
@idk_idk
It's entirely possible Bending v0.7 broke under the new Bukkit. Download the dev build instead.

Yes, I certainly know that having seperate configs would not be user friendly, I think it shouldn't be enabled as a default, but rather has to be set up as a side choice,by the server owner/technician who is willing to do the work of learning and maintaining the configs. I would love to be your test subject for this as I have many plans, but I understand how long these things take, so just let me know later. Cat

Oh and waterspout is also possible in build regions but if you do it on snow it creates 0.01% a water block and that is bad because then they can make everything water :P

Yes it does. If you would read "HELP! IT'S NOT WORKING!", you would have downloaded the dev build and seen that, yes, it works.
@codiaz
I have already checked Bukkit 1.4 with Bending, and there's not an outdated thing in it :D Nothing broke, so it looks like nothing needs to be changed for 1.4.
@Kenner03
If you have the dev build, and people can build, then they can bend. Otherwise, it's attached to PvP. Also the dev build allows people to bend harmless bending in protected areas (like AirSpout and HealingWaters)
@trooldanoobs
Thanks. I'm glad that this plugin seems to inspire people. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I think I might even people some people's idol o.O
@monstercat101
That error message is just a debug message. I've actually completely rewritten earthbending reversion (again, 3rd time) and will be releasing it with the new dev build which will come out when Bukkit 1.4 recommended comes out.
With Lightning, I am considering something. Stay tuned. And air is done. I'm am incredibly satisfied with air - it needs nothing more offensive, it is exactly as defensive as intended.
@monstercat101
I can totally see how this could be useful, but I don't readily see how this can be done in a user-friendly way. If I can do it though, I'll certainly try.

Posted Oct 30, 2012You can give them with a permission file what they may use and what they may not ... so why a new config file for it?

Posted Oct 30, 2012Is it possible to have the option of having seperate config files for different groups? Id really like to have people earn metal bending, as master earth benders, but the config affects all earth benders. Further, having this can open up a whole world of possibilities for different groups, my server is surrounded by events and ranks, having this sometime in the future would really make it easier organising things. Thanks for your time, Cat.

Posted Oct 28, 2012Hi, I randomly get this in the console sometimes: [Bending] Moved earth not in keys. Any ideas? Also, an earthbender on my server cant seem to catapult, they know how to use it, it just randomly stopped working, has anyone else experienced this? Orion, with lightning bending, I feel it should be more user friendly, perhaps add a second use like with surge, a short range attack? I'd also love air to have an op attack move that is short range, but deals more damage, Just ideas. Thanks so much, Cat.

You need to use the 'build' flag to stop Bending. This was changed some time ago.
