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

Posted Aug 22, 2014First off I'd like to say thank you very much for this mod, It's awesome! The amount of content in this mod is just staggering. I love it!
OK so I'm running a 1.7.10 bukkit server. I have all the recommend plugins to enhance my fun with this mod. I've been creating rooms in my Tardis. I made a custom console room but my server crashed before it was finished. I logged back on and I went to Jettison the room so I could rebuild it again, but for some reason the room won't delete. I know jettison works because I've deleted other rooms with no problem. Is there is a reason why custom console room is not deleting?... Is there another way to delete that room type?

If you don't have a permissions plugin installed, then you need to be an OP on the server in order to have access to everything. However, I believe TARDIS areas default to no permissions, even for OPs. So you probably need to set up some kind of permissions plugin to get it to work. I recommend PermissionsBukkit.

@BincleThaDev
Possibly, need some more details though as to what exactly the problem is. I'll also be stating the obvious and asking have you followed the instructions EXACTLY, ie where does it all go wrong? You will need to provide cfg files,paste them into http://pastebin.com/ and pm me the the address.

Posted Aug 21, 2014Hey guys, I need lots of help. It's been like this for days. Heres what's up: I have been able to create a TARDIS before and use it without issues, but 2 days after making that tardis i exterminated it. So then i made another seed block, and placed it. It said the message: Valid seed block :) when i crafted it and when i placed it it said: You placed a TARDIS Seed block! I right click the seed block and it does nothing. It doesn't materialize or create the world! I have tried everything. From changing configs to reinstalling the plugin. Help would be much appreciated!! If it would be easier, I'll write the IP so you can join and help me in-game. That would be THE BEST. Thanks so much! IP: mc.team-nd.co.uk I'll be on and my IGN is zZ_BINCLE_Zz ;) Thanks so much, -Bincle
