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
In reply to eccentric_devotion:
ok i unzipped the file and added both of them in, the chunk generator enables fine its the tardis.jar plugin that is not working right
In reply to timeturner93:
You'll need to create an issue on github with your server log
Or try the TARDIS Discord server - https://discord.gg/sfuPVHh
Either way, we'll need to see the error...
Hey there, how can I disable the dynmap markers for TARDIS? Seems like they've re-enabled themselves even though we don't have the extension. TARDIS v 4.6.3-b2281
In reply to CosmicSocietySonic:
Dynmap-TARDIS has been integrated into the main TARDIS plugin...
Looks like we need a config option to disable it - though it won't appear unless you update to a 1.17 build...
In reply to CosmicSocietySonic:
The 1.16.5 release here: https://github.com/eccentricdevotion/TARDIS/releases/tag/1.16.5 includes the disable dynmap config option
I'm back after a long, long Minecraft break :) I look forward to following your plugin again! I'm in the slow process of migrating from Spigot 1.12.2 to Paper 1.16.5. I'm hoping I can get my Tardis ported between the versions eventually...it became pretty large the last time I used it :)
In reply to thecharlza:
Welcome back :)
Not compatible with Spigot 3043 / Paper 594 and higher...
I'll work on it as I get time!
In reply to eccentric_devotion:
Fixed.
Update to TARDIS & TARDISChunkGenerator 4.6.0 before updating to Spigot 3043 / Paper 594 and higher...
my tardis is tan and does not have a police sign making it impossible to exterminate?
i just installed tardis.jar and TARDISChunkGenerator.jar
In reply to leathalinjexion:
The default TARDIS shell is set to "FACTORY", use the Chameleon Circuit GUI to make it a Police Box.
connection timed out on tardisjenkins, solutions?
If I teleport to my tardis coordinates i can't find it can you help?
Either set per_world_perms to false in config, or use:
tardis.travel.[world]
https://eccentricdevotion.github.io/TARDIS/configuration-travel.html
In reply to eccentric_devotion:
ok thank you will try this now
Hi whats the perms for travelling to a custom world [i rename the overworld] as players keep asking me they do not have permission.
Hi ive set the resource pack to the server properties which i combined the sounds to the textures it worked for a few days and now when i enter the tardis and leave it disables the resource pack and dont know how to fix this.
In reply to lmggamer1997:
Don't enable resource pack switching, the pack is too big to be switched easily and the latest pack doesn't require you to switch packs anyway...
I looked but wasnt able to locate it on the permissions page. What is the permission to allow user to use the scanner map?
In reply to X00dis:
tardis.scanner.map
