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
In reply to euanpc:
Is already in the plugin...
It's impossible to do an actual laser in a Spigot plugin though so it works the same way as any other sonic.
In reply to eccentric_devotion:
no as in make the laser sonic shoot projectiles
In reply to euanpc:
Then it wouldn't be a laser!
In reply to eccentric_devotion:
you could use the loc.add(loc); to make raycasting
can you make the sonic freeze work on mobs
In reply to euanpc:
No, how about a Knockback upgrade instead
In reply to eccentric_devotion:
oh okay
Jenkins build #2142 the early rotor and the tenth rotor have the same crafting recipe, it returns the tenth - no way to get the early one in game. otherwise, this new feature works fantastically and everyone's loving it.
In reply to CosmicSocietySonic:
Delete recipes.yml and let it regenerate, or change the Time Rotor Tenth entries from GRAY_DYE to CYAN_DYE and restart:
Will fix the recipes updater for the next build.
Please people, update your Spigot / Paper builds to the latest version!
Build #2132
In reply to eccentric_devotion:
Amazing! So you could actually make transparent and semi-transparent blocks!
In reply to Forge_User_21136890:
No, they're not blocks at all, but items in an item frame - which actually makes it much easier as you can rotate one model to change its direction :)
In reply to eccentric_devotion:
Insanely cool! I assume this will require users to change their TARDIS interior to see the new pretty; will I need to update schematics or anything like that?
In reply to ReverendJesus:
Still a work in progress, but you'll be able to craft four different time rotors and add them to any console with the /tardis update rotor command. I've figured out how to have proper transparent textures now so they look even better :)
I've added one new console schematic, but it's basically just the default with the new time rotor in it - until I (or someone better at building) designs another one. Will possibly be an option for custom console schematics as well.
for weeping angels can you make it use player heads instead of retexture things for the heads
In reply to euanpc:
No, player heads are not the right shape
Is it possible at all to customize the exterior of the TARDIS? for example, instead of a small police box, can I turn it into a larger Castlevania type castle? (teleportation castle)
In reply to bluebarrycats:
You can customize the exterior, but only in a 3x3x4 sized box. Use the Chameleon Constructor GUI or the Shell room.
