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

The error points to the plugin not being able to find the spawn point for the TARDIS world... can you confirm that you are using
create_worldsand you TARDIS is in it's own world?-

No offense intended ('cause it's a good idea), but I've deleted your (unformatted) comment and created a ticket instead: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-mods/tardis/tickets/177-architectural-reconfiguration-system/
Please add further comments to the ticket, and read here about formatting :)

Well, I don't currently have any plans for an Architectural Reconfiguration System... but it is a really interesting idea, which I just might have to have a tinker with :)
The hard part would be detecting where to grow the room, it would be much easier if all rooms and the main console were the same size as and all aligned to chunks i.e. 16 x 16 - then the blocks in the walls would correspond to chunks in game.

Posted May 30, 2013Also, do you have any plans of adding an Architectural Reconfiguration System? I had an idea for one
Right click on the section for the new room to grow. Place seed block of desired room in the growth chamber (the Hole in the wall)
Pull lever
The TARDIS will then start growing the room in the location. The wall is a giant "screen", you can scroll the screen by pressing the buttons. "Scrolling" will just shift the blocks. The blocks correspond to the type of room it is. Clay, for example, would be a passage. A pumpkin, a bedroom. If you right click a built room and then place a TNT in the hole in the wall, then it will jettison that room.
You can't see, but when you pull the lever, a piston pushes a quartz block so it is flush with the wall. The 3 lamps indicate which floor you are on. The Antigravity/gravity room types let you have multiple floors, this will allow you to determine which floor you are on.
EDIT: click this link for the full picture, link

Ah, okay. That was the feature that was giving me trouble, creating the TARDIS in own world.

Last time I checked it was working with the new Tekkit and BukkitForge (can't remember which version, so you might have to experiment a bit), some of the features were missing (like creating the TARDIS in its own world or a default world - set them false in the config...) The biggest road block is BukkitForge which, while does it a reasonable job, just isn't Bukkit!

Posted May 30, 2013I'm not sure how hard it would be, but could you add support for this plugin and the new Tekkit with bukkitforge? I really want to play the new Tekkit, but it isn't fun without this plugin.

Il permettra TARDISes à être créés dans un monde de par défaut appelé TARDIS_TimeVortex. Le monde va permettre chambres à cultiver.
Vous souhaitez utiliser si vous ne voulez pas que chaque TARDIS d'avoir son propre monde.

If they do something terrible on the server, BAN them. End of story.
What you suggest would be terribly hard to do, and if the player never finds the world, completely pointless as well...

Posted May 28, 2013Can you make it so that if the admin decides that someone does not deserve a tardis after they do something terrible on the server, the admin can move the tardis to a new world and leave it there. If the tardis is then left for 10 minecraft years, the tardis will grow ginormous and be unable to be used again. But if the owner finds the world before 10 minecraft years are up, they can use their tardis again.

Ok, so adding that line seemed to fix it on my end. Now just to test it with another player. Thank you!
