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

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

Open your eyes, grasshopper and thou shall find what ye seek. (ie read this site carefully, although I prefer the bukkit team comment, if you don't know where to get it you shouldn't be using it)

Posted Dec 31, 2013Hey mate! I'm using your latest 2.7 version and for some reason, I cannot upgrade the sonic screwdriver no matter how hard I try. I created the circuits and the default sonic, but I can't seem to be able to craft the upgrades, any idea what might be causing this? Thanks!

Dev builds are not necessarily discouraged, they are simply not recommended. Besides, it's his server, and it is his decision which versions of which plugins, server builds, etc. that he wishes to use. There is much freedom to choose in that way. ;)

Posted Dec 30, 2013For some reason i cannot create the s-circuit to create the remote for the tardis. At the beginning it used to give me the error that some files were not loaded so i added the map files to the main world data folder and that solved the issue. But i still cannot create the remote as the s-circuit won't work. I can create the L and M circuit. But not S.
Any advice ?
Edit: Ok Sorry I found the previous ticket. I'm going to try this now :-)
2de edit: The map files did not work. Tried it twice but it would not show up. Used the /tardisadmin difficulty easy instead.

There is a problem with MultiWorld 5.0 and current versions of TARDIS, downgrade to 4.7.3.
I have a v2.7 build that fixes the issue, but I'm not quite ready to push it to GitHub/Jenkins yet, maybe later today...
@Xakorik
What's the error? Post it in a paste

But here comes another glitch....
Now when a new user makes a TARDIS they cannot move inside it, says they don't have permission.
Edit:
This only occurs when citizens 2 is enabled.
Further Edit:
Scratch that, still occuring.
