I hope you take this into further consideration then. Because you are able to do a massive torrent wave from a single bottle which screams illogical. Not to mention a surge and an octopus form... Just sayin....
And who says that logical and should stay in the plugin?
Some people, like myself.
Considering that:
Well they kinda do. Suggestions like that were set to looking into.
Well some people, myself included, will argue over whether or not bottlebending should be nerfed realistically. After all, if ProjectKorra's goal is really to bring bending into minecraft, why have such an illogical feature? Why not have earthbenders be able to bring pebbles to bend?
Cuz that's the point? You don't shoot out a wave of a liberty statue during fullmoon from your one waterbottle. That's not how quantity works.
If the point was to have bending be illogical and not correlate as well as it can, logically, with Minecraft, then I don't see a problem with lightning being able to one-hit kill people. Why not? It doesn't have to be logically balanced, according to that statement.
1)Why should it be one-hit kill? Iroh didn't die from lightning, when he got shot.
That was an example. I wasn't being serious. But according to your counter
to my question
Illogical features are allowed. I used my lightning example to try to convey the message.
Well surely there are others ways to make it balance while making it logical for sure.
Yes, for lightning. However, for bottlebending, it is both illogical and unbalanced, and the same can go for plantbending too. Why are waterbenders able to spam surge with just a single bottom? Why are they able to neglect fall damage after falling hundreds of blocks with a single bottle? If any element should be vulnerable to falling from a great height, it should be waterbenders and earthbenders, provided the ground is not an earthbendable source, but I digress. There's no reason why water should be able to do half of the things it does with bottlingbending. So why add another feature that would basically make it a free get-away provided you have a small chance to charge it up? Why join the bandwagon of illogicality ?
Yea there are a lot of aspects dealing with logic that need to be worked out. However, we are discussing bottlebending because it's relevant to the thread. If you'd like to discuss all of the flaws as far as logic goes, make a new thread.
Elaborate
How could we do this and have it aesthetically pleasing? And no, particles are not ALWAYS the answer....
True
I honestly don't think that the lightning made by a bender is as powerful as lightning from a storm but... Depending on the anger, time of day, and opponent I can see it having the same effects.
Neither did Zuko but then again, he had the aid of Katara and her healing hands.
Because #BendingLogic
How do airbenders not take fall damage? Same kind of thing. A waterbender could use the snow around them to brace their fall or.... Honestly don't know how a thin sheet of water (surge) would brace yourself enough to resist the damage of falling....
*refer to my suggestion above
Let's not.
bottlebending should be nerfed realisticallyI think there should be an option for bottlebending in the config. And not just a true/false or enable/disable option. Just how each ability gets strengthened by a moon/full moon, each ability can be weakened by a bottle/plant. Like for *some* abilities you can edit the moon factor, by how much the settings for the abilities are changed during a moon/full moon. And, at the top of the config where you can tell the plugin if waterbenders can bend with weapons and where you can describe what a "snow" or "ice" block is, there should be an option to set a global bottlebending multiplier. it could be set to false or have a number. If this is set then all of the bottlebending options in the rest of the config will be nullified UNLESS changed, if that's possible. So if you use torrent from a bottle, for example, the stream would be shorter and you wouldn't be able to do torrent wave, or at least make it shorter. Basically the same effects as a moon/full moon but the opposite, weakening your abilities instead of strengthening them.

I'm no physics expert, but isn't upward pressure stablizing the bender to be pushed up constantly without falling through? Considering that's how waterspout was in the show and is in-game. Pretty sure the show makers wouldn't disregard physics, because that's stupid.
