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
@ewized
tardis.*
works fine for me with PermissionsBukkit, I don't need to settardis.exile: false
at all, astardis.*
is just a parent node forwhich as you can see doesn't include
tardis.exile
!I think an easier solution is to change my
tardis.*
parent node to something liketardis.use
will test that tonightI have an idea to fix the exile problem. You should create a secrete permission node and if that is activated it disables the exile permission and thus allows op and ones with tardis.* to work.
@Kinnthank
WTF indeed, if you read a few comments back the solution is given to this, which is a permissions related error.
See here: http:dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/tardis/#w-permissions
or here: http:dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/tardis/?comment=352
or even here: http:dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/tardis/?comment=278
"You exile status does not allow you to bring the TARDIS to this location!" WTF?
@xXSshadowXx
Will do some debugging tonight with the skyblock plugin and see if I can find what's going on
@eccentricnz
We are using http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/ultimate-skyblock/
Could the fact that it doesn't create a bedrock layer at the bottom of the world have anything to do with it?
@xXSshadowXx
What Skyworld plugin are you using?
@eccentricnz
Well I thought that was it but I woke up this morning to it doing it again. I skimmed through the log files and found this came up very rarely compared the what I posted earlier.
2012-12-02 10:14:03 [SEVERE] [TARDIS] Get TARDIS from Button Error: java.sql.SQLException [SQLITE_NOMEM] A malloc() failed (out of memory)
The only thing that's different is we have added a skyworld.
Not sure where the Out of Memory error is from because the server is only using about 30% of the memory allocated to it.
Works on 1.4.5?
@markdf
Nice, going to add some of those to the default quotes file :)
Just thought I'd post some of my custom quotes
Adric! You've come to help me find the zero room.
Its the End, but the moment has been prepared for.
Not far now Brigadier, if the Ice Warriors don't get their first.
Adric is the navigator, he knows the way..
That's the trouble with regeneration, you never quite know what your going to get.
Yes, 5th Doctor fan.
Nevermind, I got it to work!
@Grantfred
Was hoping for more than the one line... a disk I/O error would indicate to me that maybe the plugin doesn't have write access to the DB file, can you check that?
@eccentricnz , I hope this is what you meant... http://dev.bukkit.org/paste/6664/
@Grantfred
Could you put the full error from console here please: http:dev.bukkit.org/paste/ and then post the link to your paste back here.
Tried to create a TARDIS and it said this in the console, "[TARDIS] Block Place Listener Error: java.sql.SQLException: disk I/O error" Love if I could get help!
@xXSshadowXx
Well glad it wasn't my bad coding for a change :)
Any idea why this would start being spammed to console?

2012-12-01 19:47:43 [SEVERE] [TARDIS] Could not get block locations from DB!
2012-12-01 19:47:44 [SEVERE] [TARDIS] Could not get block locations from DB!
2012-12-01 19:47:44 [SEVERE] [TARDIS] Could not get block locations from DB!
Edit - Nevermind I'm an idiot. I changed the world the tardis is created in however didn't clear the database file.
Sorry but I love your controls on the tardis and please make more doctor who plugins
@TwitchOut
Thanks for the generous comments :)
