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 version
command if possible, otherwise copy from server log - Exact TARDIS version i.e. NOT 'the latest' - use the
/tardis version
command 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

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
@Lyhome
I will look in to the
/tardis chameleon add
command and see what's up - thanks for the info.I should also be able to detect snow in the time travel location and just get the TARDIS to find the next block down and land there (displacing any snow), then there shouldn't be a need for a block under the door, unless it lands on a snowy slope :)
Yea, HELLO! Your name says nz so i presume you are from New Zealand, sorry if i'm incorrect. Anyway, i am a big fan of this mod!!!! But, i'm not trying to be better than you, but i noticed that the lamp block looks alot like the inside of The Doctors tardis, so i made a design for a new tardis (interior), i have screenshots for you, but i could send you the whole map if you want, but there are a few random stuff that i made in that map too, but i'll make sure you are close to the design. I am getting off track, um where was i, yes, and the Box, i made a design for that, it's all similar to your design don't worry! But if you are interested in taking a look, we could Skype chat or email? That is all i have to say, it's alot i know XD But yea, thaaanks(:
The Tardis places a block underneath the door, when trying to land on snow. If there must be a block to place a door on snow then, I suggest the Tardis lands with a platform or something instead so it doesn't just appear to be floating.
There appears to be an issue with the command /tardis chameleon add.
Here is my server log. : http://pastebin.com/qJgsSasz
The command was working yesterday, before I had multiverse, MV Portals and MV Nether Portals.
Keep it up, this is the best plugin to come out yet. I've always wanted a portable base that was actually a Tardis. ;D
Perhaps you could think about the model sometime though. The control room is cheaply done, and the outside is kind of sad. Still, I love the plugin.
@hidillon
Please post a ticket with as much detail as possible, and I'll do my best to help you out :)
@eccentricnz
I have tried to delete the folder and it still doesn't work and I'm owner i love the chameleon circuit
Exactly 6000 downloads :D! Skills, my fellow developer!
@Mazgula
The
TARDIS.delete
permission is FALSE by default, so unless you have permissions.*: true or '*', you have to give the permission to whoever you want to have it.Are you sure that the TARDISs you are trying to delete are actually in the database? If they're not, just break the block behind the POLICE BOX sign and get rid of the blocks manually.
I still can't delete any TARDIS.... Is it enabled for ops to delete any tardis by breaking the sign?
@islandmat
I did that in the last update with the /tardis travel I entered the X and Y and X that was inside my Tardis and poof I created a pardox.
@islandmat
Ha ha, sounds VERY Doctor Whoish to me :)
In the new update you can make a paradox!!!! Type /tardis comehere wile in your tardis XDDDDD
@rythar
@Siedge
Have a quick fix for world borders, let the world border plugin kick you back, and then remote control the TARDIS to you using
/tardis comehere
@jillfire1
/tardis admin config
Video showing off Chameleon Circuit (and new
/tardis comehere
command)@BrighamX
It checks the block directly under the TARDIS, if it can be used to build the Police Box walls it does, if it is something like sand which would fall down (if over air) then it changes it to its nearest equivalent, in this case sandstone. Going to make a short video to show it tonight. Its pretty cool when you land in a tree and your TARDIS is made of leaves (with a log so they don't decay!) or on snow and you get an igloo TARDIS :)
I just want to know
what does the chamelon circuit do?
does it make the TARDIS invisible?
or does it make it look like a tree or something
@seriosbrad
Will add a player preference option to turn quotes on and off, for now you might just have to put at least one quote into the quotes.txt file. Thanks for catching the error, will work on it tonight
@ewized
There already is a blacklist for the Chameleon Circuit (and a change list eg sand -> sandstone, gravel -> stone etc), I know I missed Snow blocks, the next version corrects that... Can you tell me what you landed on, so I can check it out?
Will add your force direction to the todo list.
@jillfire1
You don't need a timelords.yml if you have started with a fresh plugins/TARDIS folder, but you do need one if you are upgrading from a previous version (lower than 1.3). You will always get the error running
/tardis admin update
if there is no timelords.yml present as it tries to read the file to transfer any old TARDISs in to the new database format.Just make a new TARDIS and things should be fine. If you still can't travel to different worlds, check the config.yml file and make sure that there is a
worlds
section and that the worlds you want to travel to are listed under it, and set totrue
e.g.:
