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

Own world as in an empty world (no terrain)? You should install Multiverse for full functionality of the plugin

Why are you changing a chameleon sign? You''ll need to add the Chameleon Sign somewhere else (it's not accessible via the Control Centre).

So, you haven't got Multiverse installed?

Posted Oct 15, 2015Okay, I've got it set up and working. :)
But I'm a little confused... It says I need Multiverse to have them in a custom world, but, using just the three java files included for this plugin - I made a TARDIS and it already appears to be in it's own world somewhere up in the sky.

CraftBukkit/Spigot can be downloaded from the TARDIS Index File page - or go to Spigot for instructions on how to build your own.
There are links to other plugins above. Always use the latest version for the version of CraftBukkit/Spigot you are using (1.8.8), sometimes you may have to get them from a dev server.
There is a link to an installation video above. Other videos are on the associated page in the docs.
PLEASE read the official docs...

Anything between square brackets (
[ ]) in a command means "substitute in something here", in the case of "command", substitute the command name e.g. "rebuild", "hide" etc-

Posted Oct 15, 2015Hello, when I type "/tardisbind remove command" as said here: "http://eccentricdevotion.github.io/TARDIS/bind-commands.html", it says me: "Could not find a save with that name! Try using /TARDIS list saves first."

Posted Oct 15, 2015Hi! How would I install this plugin the easiest way possible, and what other plugins should I use to get the best functionality of this without all the world protection stuff I don't need? Is there a video of this anywhere, and what version of the plugins should I be using? Also, how do I install the version CraftBukkit/Spigot needed?
Sorry for the newbie question.

Non, si la porte est fermée, vous avez besoin d'une clé pour l'ouvrir. Le plugin vise à être aussi proche de la réalité et de l'émission de TV que possible.
