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.

The only thing the 62 is for is for evaporate, nothing else. Creating water with waterbending is a bug, and a tenacious one. It's never been allowed.

Ok, ty that was my biggest problem the surge :S, but Ive been on many servers and you see that the water goes higher than it normally should be, so like in an arena the water is 62 but when waterbenders fight sometimes it creates 1 waterblock above the 62 so on 63 and that spread and than it happens again, also I have 4 arenas and they are automated resetting BUT what happens: the water is on 66 but it should be on 62 so I reset it but what happens: somewhere in the arena the water comes back at point of 66 and it looks really weird cause you get like a huge waterwall in the arena, so I want to know for sure if this is your plugin cause I see it happening on every server that got automated arenas, thanks anyways.

Spamming bending doesn't generally stress the server moreso than normal Bending uses. There will be configurable cooldowns for every ability, however.
@codiaz
Water flow isn't normal? There are some bugs with waterbending, but nothing really about the flow of water.
Waterbender's passive is to smooth water as it swims, so I'm not sure what you're saying. Surge's water creation has been fixed in the latest dev build (not yet released).
@sidboy55555
What?
@0dayRUDE
I'll fix it.
@kunarkrules
Just choose chiblocking...
@AssassinSpartan
There will be more configuration options for many things, but no plans for putting durations on abilities.
@Jabayoo
Actually, there are only 3 occasions in the show where the AirScooter died out even with Aang concentrating on it: climbing the wall of Ba Sing Se (The Drill), hovering over a destroyed 2nd floor of a house while escaping from Azula (The Chase), and levitating high in the air to escape from a mass of fan girls (The Warrior of Kyoshi). Each of those cases were where Aang was fighting against gravity far more than he would in the simple resting/moving case of AirScooter, which showed no sign of deterioration under normal circumstances. In fact, fresh learners of the AirScooter technique made a game with it - can't really make a game with something that only exists briefly.
So yeah, I follow the show as best as is possible with Minecraft. Also they were referring to AirSpout, which under all the instances it was show, never diminished when the bender didn't it want it to.
Also, EarthBlast has a cooldown in the latest dev build (not yet released), so there's that.

Posted Apr 27, 2013@Codiaz If he followed the show then he would know that the air ball technique can only be used for a certain amount of time. So no, he does not follow the show. It is not possible to put a cooldown on earthblast, so no, not everything is possible.

No, everything that is possible is in config, and orion follows the series and airbenders could fly forever as long as they don't fall in sleep :P

Posted Apr 27, 2013Hi, is there a way to configure the abilities more? Like having a cool down or height reduction on air spout and being able to make it so that air benders cannot constantly fly? Sorry if I am picking on air but is there a way for us to configure the abilities more to our liking?

Posted Apr 23, 2013This is the most popular addition to my server since working TARDISes! Thank you so much!
Unfortunately, the server has been crashing at random as of late.The blank error logs lead me to believe that players spamming bending are the culprits since the only sign of a pending crash are sudden 100% usage on both CPU and RAM.
At least until I can raise enough donations to afford upgrading my server, could you possibly add a "cooldown" timer for most moves? Perhaps a "warmup" would be useful for moves that make sense to use 3-4 times in a row before switching to a different tactic. It would encourage players to mix it up more instead of just spamming shockwave all day.
Other than the CPU/RAM usage, I love this plugin and can't wait to see it develop more!

Nope.
@davidwellz
They have of course been suggested.
@0dayRUDE
I have no idea what that error is from - maybe a conflicting plugin.
@Lightninglizard
What interference are you experiencing?
@Kenner03
I've no idea what's causing that and it seems more like an issue with Essentials than with Bending.
@codiaz
I'd love to fix that but I don't know how right now.
@dizzyheads
How about instead of demanding things, you download the latest dev build where the Torrent bug has been fixed? And bloodbending is intended to be Op only, so of course it's OP if people are using it.

Posted Apr 22, 2013Is the fireblast "tnt" on hard mode ever gonna do normal damage or will it be 1 hit KO, forever? But I found out that if you have multiple worlds and you main world is on easy mode, the tnt does in every world only 2-4 hearths which is very nice!
