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

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

I prefer to keep the resource packs separate. If you want to combine the textures and sounds and provide it for your players, feel free to do so.
Je préfère garder la Resource Packs séparés. Si vous souhaitez combiner les textures et les sons et de lui fournir pour vos joueurs, n'hésitez pas à ce faire.

The Who food is just renamed and retextured food items, there are no permissions, and neither does TARDIS do anything to alter the mechanics of eating. The only thing that could affect it is if you have changed the default recipes to provide an item that is not food (but then you shouldn't get restored hunger) or if a client mod or another plugin is interfering.

Posted Jul 14, 2014Bonjour ! C'est bon j'ai régler le problème Multiverse avait supprimer quelques fichiers de la map ce qui à engager un masquage du mon monde ! Donc j'ai pris les fichiers manquant depuis un Tardis que j'ai générer !
Mais j'ai une questions ! Serait-il possible de mettre les bruits qui sont fourni dans MCPatcher et le TARDIS-Sounds dans le plugins même pour éviter de demander à mes joueurs cette manœuvre un peut compliquer pour certains ?
Cordialement,
Hello! It's good I solve the problem Multiverse had to delete some files that map to engage masking my world! So I took the missing files from a Tardis I generate!
But I have a question? Would it be possible to put the sounds that are provided in MCPatcher and the TARDIS-Sounds in the plugins to avoid even ask my players this can complicate a maneuver for some?
Best regards,

Posted Jul 14, 2014I cannot seem to eat any Who food. Is this normal? I read the page about food but didn't see anything about how to use the food. I see it restores hunger but I can't use the food at all. Perhaps I'm missing a permission somewhere? I looked in the perms list, too, and didn't see anything.

Posted Jul 13, 2014eccentricnz, A while back I used this plugin on a private server and at the time there was a cofig option to disable the informational book that players recieve upon first login. In the latest update I haven't been able to find this option and for the plugin to serve the purpose I'd like it to on my server, I need it available. Is there a line that I could input into the file to use this option again or does it need to be added back into the plugin structure? Help would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like you have a problem with your multi-world plugin, TARDIS does not unload worlds.
On dirait que vous avez un problème avec votre plugin multi-monde, TARDIS ne décharge pas des mondes.

When the travel location was checked, the lava had not yet started flowing from wherever it started, so the plugin determined it was safe, by the time the TARDIS had materialised the lava had enough time to flow down and come knocking at the door. So, not intentional, but normal Minecraft behaviour.
