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

Hello. this message appears when I start my server and when I try to summon my tardis it doesn't arrive is there a way to fix this? "Error occured while ennabling TARDIS v3.8.2-b1677 (is it up to date?)" Thanks
In reply to Forge_User_64764343:
You need to show the entire error from the server log... eg the bit that comes before what you have shown. Use a paste - https://dev.bukkit.org/paste (don't put it here in the comments)

Multiverse is not enabled.
TARDIS relies on Multiverse, so it fails if it is not enabled.
Fix your other errors first...
What version of CraftBukkit are you using?
In reply to eccentricnz:
In reply to Forge_User_64764343:
Looks like you might be using the un-shaded CraftBukkit/Spigot jar file from BuildTools that doesn't have the dependencies added to it. The JAR file should be ~40MB.

In reply to Forge_User_64764343:
You need to install the TARDISChunkGenerator plugin - look under Additional Files on the download page https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/tardis/files/2523095
In reply to eccentricnz:
Is there any way for server admins to forcefully move the TARDIS?
Sometimes we find them parked in bad spots, such as too close to roads, other builds, or just a place we want to build on, and unless HADS Displacement is on, there's no way to move the TARDIS ourselves. This can be a problem if we're not sure when the owner will be back on.
The blocks can be removed with WorldEdit or other commands, but the protection remains, and the area is reverted if the owner moves their TARDIS.
Right now our only option is to just delete the TARDIS if the player hasn't been on in a few weeks - but it'd be better if we could move their TARDIS in case they come back, especially if they've put a lot of work into it already.
Alternatively (or preferably in addition) could there be a config option to require HADS (displacement) be enabled? We don't protect roads (or most buildings for that matter) and it'd be nice if anyone could just punch any TARDIS if it's in the way. Right now they're basically this indestructible obstacle.

Just created a Zero Room but the room is dark, only 2 lights are on. Is this a known issue that will be fixed later or is there a hot fix now?
In reply to Kaijudo11:
Not a bug in the plugin, but just a general Minecraft lighting bug, try placing a block/torch to make the client update the lights.
In reply to eccentricnz:
In reply to Kaijudo11:
Yep, set enabled: true for each one
In reply to eccentricnz:
I put in all the resource packs, I used the current version of Optifine, I create a Tardis on my server but for some reason it doesn't have a sign on the outside and it doesn't have the police box texture. I tried a few things like turn the police box option off and on, rebuilding the Tardis, but nothing is working. Did I do something wrong? is it a bug? or do you have to build a circuit to get the Police Box and Sign back?
In reply to Kaijudo11:
TARDISes are now created with the FACTORY preset as default. Use the Chamelon Circuit GUI (via the Control Sign) to change it to the Police Box.
