Downloads
I'm too lazy to upload TARDIS files to Bukkit anymore, as builds are automatically created when the plugin is updated and changes pushed to GitHub.
Version specific downloads can be found here: https://tardis.pages.dev/download
Please make sure you are using the latest Spigot/Paper builds (for the Minecraft version you are running) before installing TARDIS or creating an issue!
What it does
TARDIS is a plugin that gives you the ability to create a Police Box that lets you time travel (teleport) to random locations. It adds a Whovian twist to the typical /sethome and /home commands.
As a player, you can:
- Create a TARDIS that is bigger on the inside.
- Time travel to a random location.
- Time travel back home (where you created the TARDIS initially).
- Save and list interesting time travel locations, so you can return to them easily.
- Take companions with you when you time travel.
- Make your TARDIS blend in with the Chameleon Circuit.
- Use your own schematic to build the TARDIS interior
- Grow new TARDIS rooms
- Use Artron Energy
- Remote control the TARDIS
- Custom TARDIS sounds with companion Resource Pack
- Custom TARDIS textures with companion Resource Pack
Official documentation & FAQs

What's new?
Installation
As a minimum, just drop the TARDIS.jar, TARDISChunkGenerator.jar (look under Additional Files on the download page) and any optional plugins listed below into the Bukkit plugins folder and start your server. For more detailed instructions see: https://tardis.pages.dev/installation-v5
Optional installs
These are not needed for TARDIS to function, but enhance the plugin with extra features...
- Install the TARDIS-SoundResourcePack in the Minecraft client to hear custom TARDIS sounds
- Install the TARDIS-Resource-Pack to see aal the fancy textures and models (requires TARDIS v4.2 or higher).
- Install the TARDISChunkGenerator plugin so that you can generate TARDISes in their own self-contained world (included on the TARDIS plugin download page under Additional files).
- Install WorldGuard to automatically protect your TARDIS from griefing, and stop mobs spawning in TARDIS worlds.
- Install TARDISWeepingAngels to add some Whovian mobs to the game.
- Install a Permissions plugin, so that you can restrict or grant players the rights to use TARDIS’ different features. We like PermissionsBukkit.

Bugs / Requests
Please post a ticket for TARDIS plugin requests and bugs, thank you :)
WARNING: I am no longer prepared to waste my time looking at incomplete tickets. If your ticket does not follow the guidelines set out below, it will be deleted immediately!
Make sure you have read the FAQs first, as your question may already be answered there. Also make sure you have searched for a previous ticket with the same/similar issue (use the Filters to search closed tickets).
If you are going to create a BUG ticket you need to supply relevant information (as I'm not a mind reader, nor do I have access to your server...) - as a minimum you need:
- Exact CraftBukkit version i.e. NOT 'the latest' - use the
/tardis versioncommand if possible, otherwise copy from server log - Exact TARDIS version i.e. NOT 'the latest' - use the
/tardis versioncommand if possible, otherwise copy from server log - The server log showing the entire error (as a paste or at Pastebin - NOT a screenshot) - this should be the log from when the server starts up right through to when the error occurs
- If no error in the log, then a video of the bug happening or the EXACT steps needed to reproduce the issue.
- Attach your plugins/TARDIS/config.yml file or other configuration file if relevant
- Attach your plugins/TARDIS/TARDIS.db file if relevant
- List of other plugins on server
Stats
Basic statistics are collected for some versions of the TARDIS plugin (v2.5.8 and earlier). You can opt out at any time by setting opt-out: true in plugins/PluginMetrics/config.yml
External web access
Version 2.8 (and higher) of this plugin includes a translation feature (the /tardissay command) that connects to the Lingva translation service.
You can prevent players from using the command by removing / not giving them the permission tardis.translate

Posted Mar 28, 2013How hard would it be to make a command that lets you see who is in your tardis?
And do you have a website for the texture pack to report bugs on?

You need to update WorldEdit (do WorldGuard as well to be on the safe side) - can you do that and then try creating a TARDIS again

"Latest" is NOT a version number - your idea and my idea of the 'latest' version could be completely different. I will need to see the error log before I can help any further...

Posted Mar 27, 2013I am using the latest craftbukkit and the latest TARDIS plugin. There are errors showing up on my server console I don't have access to it now but it said something about that world already existing flags updating and already having the same value and nott able to blockpass something like that hoped this helped

Check the server log and make sure that the TARDIS plugin has no errors, and is actually enabled. It would be helpful to tell us what server and plugin version you are using - if you are running CraftBukkit 1.5.1 you must use TARDIS 2.2-beta-1 or later

New TARDIS worlds = false in config (unchanged/always been like this)
TARDIS worlds (re)imported after they were created = would be set to true (though I could add a check...)

ah ok, you mean you changed the new Tardis worlds to make it so Tardis worlds are automatically set to false?
Because they automatically set to true (in that bottom of the config)
Also, I tested that latest test from you, and it worked. You can no longer travel to players/locations in disabled Tardis worlds :)...

Already implemented (and has been since v2.0): https://github.com/eccentricdevotion/TARDIS/blob/v2/src/main/java/me/eccentric_nz/TARDIS/builders/TARDISSpace.java#L71
Not sure by what you mean 'As it doesn't let you in the first place...', haven't had any reports to indicate no entry to a TARDIS after first creation, it certainly doesn't happen on server's I have played on

So, I am allowing any player on my server to create a Tardis... So would you be able to implement it, or make it so, every TARDIS world created in the config or something, makes it false to travelable to? As it doesn't let you in the first place...

Did a quick fix for player/location travelling so if world is disabled in config access is denied, haven't had time to test it, but available on the TARDIS Jenkins server:
