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

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
@eccentricnz
Correct.
@TerceptMMC
And these are your worlds?
@eccentricnz
@TerceptMMC
please post your config file
I get these errors when players are hitting the button or calling the TARDIS to them. My fault or a bug with the plugin?
F* brilliant.

@markdf
Just a thought, players will need to travel somewhere or do a /tardis comehere before the database will be updated, not much I can do about that...
Thanks eccentricnz! I'll install it soon.
@markdf
Found and squashed the breakable police box bug :)
Get v1.8.6 here: http:dev.bukkit.org/media/files/655/774/TARDIS.jar
@markdf
Hi markdf, I see the problem with the permissions nodes for time travelling to players and locations - I've typed them wrong in the description :O
They should be:
Editing description now...
<<reply 1114543="">>
The users who showed me are not online now, but they did demonstrate it to me. I'll re-install the plugin now and give you build rights on my server if you want to have a look for yourself.

@markdf
Just tested 1.8.5 and tried to break the Police Box blocks, screenshot shows the result...
Can you give more details on how they are achieving this?
Major problem with 1.85, my users use this a lot more than I do and have just showed me a dupe bug that works most of the time. They can break blocks from the tardis and use the rebuild command to repair it. Bit of a problem when the tardis is made from diamond blocks. I've disabled the plugin for now. This is probably the favourite plugin on the server.
When I try to teleport using the TARDIS, I get a message saying that the teleport is restricted to [] and there's not parking space. I read what you said to Limeyen it made no sense to me (imma noob) and all ive done is allow access to the default world (it did this before and after i allowed it) If you could explain it in simple terms from the view point of "I just installed it and..." i will make all the settings default. I am owner and op everything. Thanks for your time, Hoffmad
@markdf
Will check it out as soon as I can
Hi eccentricnz, I'm having a problem with 1.8.5 traveling to other players or to co-ords. Only as OP can I travel to players.
all builders have the following permissions
- tardis.add
- tardis.create
- tardis.enter
- tardis.find
- tardis.list
- tardis.save
- tardis.timetravel
- tardis.travel.location
- tardis.travel.player
admin inherits the above plus
- tardis.admin
- tardis.delete
- tardis.skeletonkey
non-op's were able to travel to other players with the previous version.
Great plugin! I appreciate the regular updates.
@ewized
/tardis update [block]
command - this is because the the plugin can't just paste a schematic - it has to read it and when it places certain block IDs (eg an iron door) it records them in the database - if it has two doors, or two buttons, which one should it use? I could perhaps make it the first instance of the block that it comes to, but that may not be the one you want it to be...Hey I have a few questions on how the schematics work with the worldguard. First do the worldguard region go on the schematic sizes or not. Second what would happen if more then the neccessary button iron doors and signed are in the original schematics?
