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
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
@coolo1
Yep, good idea will have a go sometime this weekend :)
Also, I have an idea for the key, with the new 1.4 naming items, you could rename the key given to the player as TARDIS Key or Sonic Screwdriver
@coolo1
Inner TARDISs are already created at about level 15, and it should be possible to find an ocean biome as well, but I'm adding WorldGuard region support, which will be a lot easier, and that should stop other players mining into the TARDIS (as long as WG is installed, and the TARDIS is created after the next release...)
Is my idea possible at all?
okay, i have it downloaded, how do i use it? where can i find it in minecraft? sorry.... im so bad at this stuff....
Thanks!
I also seem to be having some trouble with companions. I've added one to my list successfully but they cannot enter. I've tried with and without a stick (in their hand), with and without me inside first... Cannot seem to get it going, they are just told they're not allowed.
Thanks again in advance.

Will spend some time squashing the 'ghost' TARDIS bug/exploit this weekend, will also have a look at Plotty to see how it hooks into WG.
Thanks for the info :)
@eccentricnz
There are a few plugins like Plotty that create a WG region around an area automatically. That would be a great feature for this :)
Also getting this in console. http://pastebin.com/UcGkny2r
Not sure which entity it is as I am not in-game.
Love this mod... looks like there is an exploit gain resources though. Summoning/building the TARDIS under ground or indoors prevents it from hiding properly, then if you call it from outside that area, it does appear but the materials (basically a TARDIS shell) still remain in the original location.
I can reproduce this 100% of the time on the latest Bukkit ver.
I have an idea, maybe make all of the tardis's get created near bedrock in ocean biomes so they are less likely to be found...
@coolo1
I would suggest you use some sort of protection plugin in conjunction with TARDIS to protect the area the inner TARDIS is in. IMHO it is beyond the scope of this plugin to protect that much of an area... however future versions may hook into WorldGuard or similar...
Ummm... This might be obvious, but what if someone mines into your tardis?
@MERCHANToDEATH
I have added an unofficial command to the latest version (1.7.3)
/tardis occupy
Which will toggle your TARDIS occupation status, see if that helps any... if not delete the TARDIS folder in the plugins directory and start afresh.
@meeloo1323
Already one here:
http:dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/sonic-screwdriver/
can you make a sonic screwdriver mod that can activate any redstone related stuff? like redstone and turn on or off redstone torches and on or off lamps and close or open doors. just a thought
@ewized
OK see what you mean, will have a go tonight...
As usual open to new ideas, post a ticket, or PM me :)
Are you using 1.7.x yet, if so any issues?
@eccentricnz
What I meant, could you make it so that the police box can not be blown up with TnT, Creepers, Withers, and the Enderdragon. Also I have an idea about the Chameleon Circut, have schematics for what the police box will look like and possible other looks.
Ok, I got the exile thing to stop, but I still can't get into my tardis, and when I try to destroy the sign to just make a new one it says I can't because the tardis is occupied, but it's not. Any thoughts?
@JoseAngelTo
Nothing I can do about that, you'll have to wait for the Spout team to update at their end...
The SpoutCraft is out of date, therefore we cannot hear the sound effects. Help!
