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.

1.5 Is there BUT I don't think it is 1.5 for real (blocks work but commands dont) I tried bending and it works fine I also think the saving bug is gone since I didn't see it in my log anymore BUT 1 bad bad thing normally the lever bending crash only worked for 10 sec now it goes on and on and on so bending is forever gone as long as the lever goes :( If someone knows this on a server and does this, this is going to do bad things with servers with the plugin :(

I don't think I'll be adding healing from water bottles, for balance reasons. As for rainbending, read the FAQ.
@zolteex
@MakeTheUpdate
Bukkit has not even updated. Until it does, I'm not even going to attempt.
@codiaz
Thanks for the snapshot. I'll download the development build when it's released and see how compatible Bending is. That shouldn't take as long, and will be the earliest any significant number of servers update to begin with.

Posted Mar 15, 2013Orion I found a snapshot of bukkit 1.5 http://dev.nullblock.com:8080/job/CraftBukkit/ Maybe you can do something with it to already update it for 1.5 or check if it works? Anyways I know you want to wait for the stable build but that is going to take 3-4 weeks like 1.4 again :P So Idk if you gonna wait but here is the snapshot :D

And can someone of you guys tell me HOW THE F would he be able to update this if bukkit didn't update YET! ... + with the snapshot thing it still works! So I think it works fine for 1.5

Yes, Paralyze functions fully - I have used it many times on players with full effect.
@Formsq
Dodge, you're a really quick and mobile bender ;)

If you have teams somehow that disables PvP between players, Bending will not deal damage but will otherwise displace your teammate. For example, if you can't PvP against a friend and you AirSwipe them, they don't take any damage but they are knocked back.
Chiblock duration is the duration during which players who are hit by any attack from a Chiblocker cannot bend. Paralyze duration is the duration during which players who are hit by the ability "Paralyze" cannot move or take any action whatsoever.

I would love to help with that roleplaying server but anyways can you tell me what the difference between the paralyze duration and chiblock duration in the config? Isn't that the same? Oh and what will bending do with teams, the same like in a no pvp area but than only for friends?

Not sure what that error is talking about. Hopefully I'll put up an update, since when I last looked at the code there was a technical error with it and Bukkit 1.4.7.
In the meantime try using Bukkit 1.4.6? I'm not sure.

You cannot add custom moves to the plugin without rewriting the plugin itself. The moves you are referring to (Torrent, Surge) are in the dev build and are created by yours truly.
@codiaz
Reloading Bending shouldn't affect performance, I think I made it pretty robust. That is to say using "/b reload", not using "/reload".
Reloading bending like that has negative effects of stopping all bending in progress at the time (like Torrent or AirSpout), and resets all earthbent blocks (if that's in the config). That's it though.
@JakeOone
I've thought of something like the moves you are describing, but for many reasons I'm hesitant to even try to add them. Chiblockers feel a little lacking, but their passive makes up for it. Paralyze works very well though (on players, not monsters for some reason), it just has a cooldown. Thanks for the compliments.
@codiaz
@laughinguy
There is technically a roleplaying server run by me at minecraftTLA.us.to, but it's kind of barren and I can't maintain it well enough to actually do events and things.
@xColourTheory
Thank you for posting the error log, but I'm having issues opening it (probably from this internet). I'll get back to you when I can access it.

Weird.
It only seems to be happening with the dev version of it.
Dungeon-Maze doesn't use any blocks new, or add any new blocks as far as I know. Guess we'll have to wait on a reply from Orion.
