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.

You have to type /bending bind Wave while selecting the slot :P
For example: Press 2 on your keyboard [without pressing T] and you will choose slot 2 on your hotbar. do /bending bind Wave and it will say that you bind it to Slot 2 :D Easy :P If it doesnt work contact someone here.. I am not an admin or something,just helping

Just use your permissions plugin to deny bending.* for the default group.

Or just re-download 1.0.8. The re-choosing was a bug, and you probably have an old dev build.

Again, the problem is that there's no non-computer-intensive way to check if that person or mob is connected to you by earth, which is a key part.
@Klofno1
Stop asking :P Any moves will be done when they are done, and aren't due to come out any time soon.

Maybe making only that when the earthbender clicks and there is someone near him appears in the chat: "You sense someone near you" or something similar, it could be cool!

I believe if you put them in the list of blocks they should be bendable, but honestly it hasn't been tested.
Bumi didn't eat rocks - the genimite was edible itself he said. It's like rock candy, not something special for earthbenders.
@Josh4King
Update java and follow the instructions here.
@Omarsonic9
There is nothing wrong in 1.0.7...
@BadJoker1
Changing isn't allowed after you choose your element. If it is, you either have the permission node for it or have a bad version. Download either the dev build or 1.0.7 again, it will be fixed.
Cooldown feedback is something I'm interested in.
@n33dy1
Again, just tap shift as soon as the wave is launched, not when it hits. You shouldn't be having any usability issues there ::P
I'm saying it is physically impossible to send Blaze on a right click, since Bukkit can't catch a click - it can only catch you interacting with a block or placing one.
Earthbending isn't imbalanced or particularly griefy anymore, since it reverts. There will not be a config option to disable any type of bending, since that's purely permissions - just download a permissions plugin. There is not yet a config option to disable becoming a certain bender.

It just seems kind of difficult to do because the wave travels so fast and when you do it (or when I do it anyway) I'm usually too "yes, I hit them with a wave!" to think "better click shift real quick to freeze them!" which in a way ruins it in a fight, to me.
But, what if you made it work like Blaze? It could check if there is water at least 7 blocks infront of you, and if so then it sends out a wave from that spot? Or maybe a configurable option to not require the water be there, or even an option that requires you to merely be within a 5 block radius of water?
Also, I would still like to be able to configure what triggers each spell. I know I don't want Blaze going off when I place a block, but luckily i can choose which hotbar I bind it to. If I could set in my own config file to do the all-directions blaze on right-click, that would make it easier on me.
To be able to just be near water or even behind some water and punch to send a wave at them, then right-click to freeze them would be real nice. So... yeah, if you could let us configure what keys cause what in the config file, that'd be super awesome. :)
And I didn't check if this were possible or not, but can you disable certain bending abilities in the config file too? I know you can with permissions, but I use the default permissions.yml and have use-bukkit-permissions:true in my Essentials config since I only have 1 default user besides ops, but by default everyone gets to be any bender they want, and as stated before I have the whole issue with the earth bending people's claims...
Anyway, like I said before very awesome plugin and I hope you continue to slave away at it for our benefit. :3 Especially the things I said.

That is a known bug in 1.0.7. You have to either restart the server or /bending reload to add bending to a player. /bending choose works fine. This bug is fixed in 1.0.8, but it is the dev build (of course)
@Raycist
No. The plugin evolves and improves over time. I'll not have people being nostalgic. Plus the new WaterSpout is sooo much better than the old one (it actually works). And WalkOnWater was removed because you never saw that in the series - they always actively froze the part they were walking on.
@n33dy1
I would like to look into redoing EarthGrab to be nicer, but we'll see. I make no promises there.
Freeze Wave is not tricky in the least. If you are having issues using it, then you are not doing it correctly. All you have to do is tap sneak at any point in time when the wave is en route. It will automatically freeze the next target.
