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 – requires MCPatcher with CTM and CIT

What’s new?
v3.3
This version requires a recent build of CraftBukkit/Spigot – this means you will probably need to run Spigot’s BuildTools to update your server JAR file.
The TARDIS.zip file also includes a new TARDISHelper.jar for CraftBukkit 1.8.7 compatibility – TARDIS v3.3 requires TARDISHelper v1.7.3 or later.
Change log here
Installation
As a minimum, just drop the TARDIS.jar and any optional plugins listed below into the Bukkit plugins folder and start your server. For more detailed instructions see: http://eccentricdevotion.github.io/TARDIS/installation.html
Optional installs
These are not needed for TARDIS to function, but enhance the plugin with extra features…
Install the TARDIS Resource Pack in the Minecraft client to hear custom TARDIS sounds
Install Multiverse so you have multiple worlds to travel to. This is also required if you want to generate TARDISes in their own self-conatined world, and grow rooms.
Install the TARDISChunkGenerator plugin so that you can generate TARDISes in their own self-conatined world (included in the ZIP download).
Install WorldGuard to automatically protect your TARDIS from griefing, and stop mobs spawning in TARDIS worlds.
Install WorldBorder to restrict the size of the worlds generated for TARDIS occupation ( or just use the vanilla Minecraft World Border feature).
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.
Install ProtocolLib so that the TARDIS Zero Room is completely detached from the universe and the TARDIS Keyboard is editable by clicking it
Install LibsDisguises so that you can use the Genetic Manipulator / Immortality Gate
Install BarAPI so that players can see their travel progress while in the Vortex
Install EffectLib so that players can see the Junk TARDIS vortex particle effect

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
Exact TARDIS version i.e. NOT ‘the latest’ – use the /tardis version command
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

TARDIS v3.4.2
Additions
Added a config option preferences.vortex_fall: [teleport|kill] so that players that fall into the time vortex are not kicked for flying. This setting really only applies if the TARDIS WorldGuard region flag is set to exit: deny
teleport will send the players back into the TARDIS they were in
kill will set the players’ health to 0, resulting in death
Added a /tardistravel cancel command – cancels the last set destination
Added /ttravel costs command – shows the Artron Energy costs for TARDIS travel
Changes
If the /tardistravel command receives a world name and two coordinates, it now automatically determines the highest Y block
When switching to the exit: deny flag on TARDIS WorldGuard regions, the use: allow flag is also now added so that players can interact with doors, buttons and pressure plates etc.
The time travel cost is now shown in the Artron Energy HUD when a destination has been set
In the TARDIS Saved Locations GUI you can now remove saves by dragging them to the trash (a bucket)
When selecting the fast return location (/tardistravel back) the actual location is now shown in chat
Bug fixes
Fixed a bug where players who were made companions inside the TARDIS could not move when the WorldGuard flag was set to exit: deny
Fixed cave travel failing in some cases
Fixed cave travel locking up the server when trying to find a cave on a HothGenerator world
Fixed a bug where the allow.perception_filter: [true|false] config option was not added if missing
Fixed a bug where players could not turn completely invisible, even though allow.perception_filter was set to false
Fixed crops popping off when growing a GREEHOUSE room and growth.room_speed is set to default (4)
TARDIS v3.4.1
Additions
Added cave and village travel to the Keyboard
Bug fixes
The Vortex Junk TARDIS now properly uses the configured wall & floor blocks
Fixed double selecting a Chameleon preset messing up the dematerialisation sequence (causing block drops)
TARDIS v3.4
Additions
Added a bunch of missing TARDIS Information System entries (Remote Key, Artron Furnace, foods and accessories)
Added a new MEDIUM difficulty mode – uses easy crafting recipes, automatically writes Save Storage Disks, has a new Biome Reader tool – see http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/tardis/tickets/1081-tardis-medium-difficulty/
Added the TARDIS Biome Reader
use the /tardisrecipe reader command to see how to craft it
clicking the Biome Reader on a block will detect the biome at the player’s current location and automatically write a Biome Storage Disk to the Disk Storage Container if there is sufficient room and the biome disk is not there already
cannot be used in the Nether or The End
Added a config option to prevent condensing blocks and the use of the ‘full charge’ item if the TARDIS world is set to gamemode CREATIVE
preferences.no_creative_condense: [true|false]
Added an admin command for setting the artron_furnace.particles config option – /tardisadmin particles [true|false]
Added commands to allow the Junk TARDIS wall and floor blocks to be set
/tardisjunk <wall|floor> [material]
the [material] options are the same as when setting the wall or floor for TARDIS rooms – use tab completion!
Added a new button to the Chameleon Construct GUI to load the last saved construct
Added a config option to implement a TARDIS ‘open door policy’
config: preferences.open_door_policy: [true|false] – false by
default – requires restart if enabled
command: /tardisadmin region-flag [entry|exit] – used to update all
TARDIS regions in the default TARDIS world to add the specified flag
(and remove its opposite). You will need to change existing TARDIS regions to use the exit flag if open_door_policy is true, but you only need to do this once
Changes
The TARDISHelper and TARDISChunkGenerator plugins have been merged into one plugin – TARDISChunkGenerator v2.0, you will need to update TARDISChunkGenerator and can safely remove TARDISHelper
Added some new API methods so that the Dynmap-TARDIS plugin can display more information (console type etc) on maps – update Dynmap-TARDIS to v1.2 to see the results
The plugin now gets and sets Villager career levels when farming Villagers – requires TARDISChunkGenerator v2.0
Updated the Junk TARDIS to use red stained clay under the console and cobblestone above it
You can no longer build door and lamp only Chameleon constructs
When building a Chameleon construct, if there is no block under the lamp, and the lamp is a torch or redstone torch, then there will be no lamp in the resulting construct
The DESERT Chameleon preset now uses orange stained clay instead of wool to reflect the change made to desert temples in Minecraft
The TARDIS ‘umbrella’ now uses invisible BARRIER blocks instead of glass

TARDIS 3.4-beta-1
Additions

The Junk TARDIS is a public use TARDIS that any player with the correct permission can use on the server. It only travels in overworlds (no Nether or The End) and doesn’t require the player to have an Artron Energy supply
Video here: https://vimeo.com/139185257
permissions: tardis.admin to create, delete and return the Junk TARDIS – tardis.junk to fly and find the Junk TARDIS
commands: /tardisjunk create – target the centre block of a flat 6 x 6 area – this becomes the Junk TARDIS ‘home’ location
/tardisjunk delete – self explanatory
/tardisjunk return – returns the Junk TARDIS to its ‘home’ location (bringing along any players who may be onboard)
/tardisjunk find – find the current location of the Junk TARDIS
config options: junk.enabled: [true|false] – whether the Junk TARDIS is available on the server – NOTE:The Junk TARDIS will be disabled if creation.default_world is false
junk.particles: [true|false] – whether the Junk TARDIS displays a particle effect when travelling – requires EffectLib 3.4 or higher
junk.return: [time in seconds] – if [time in seconds] is greater than 0 and the Junk TARDIS has not been used for longer than the specified period, it will automatically return to its ‘home’ location
controls: sign – shows the travel destination, handbrake – starts the TARDIS travelling, tripwire hook – selects the world to travel to, stone button – sets the x coordinate, wood button – sets the z coordinate, repeater – determines the amount added or subtracted from the x and z coordinates when the buttons are clicked, comparator – sets whether the buttons add or subtract
players moving off the Junk TARDIS while it is travelling are killed instantly
update the TARDIS-Sounds resource pack for the new sfx
You can now give a full Artron Storage Cell with /tardisgive [player] cell [amount] full

must be enabled in the config – desktop.check_blocks_before_upgrade: [true|false] and desktop.block_change_percent: [max percent changed blocks allowed]
Defaults are false and 25
Changes
The plugin no longer lists items if the add-on plugin isn’t enabled
Added a check for malformed plugin versions when checking plugin dependencies
The allowable lamps list (lamp_blocks in blocks.yml) now requires Bukkit Material names rather than IDs
existing IDs will be automatically updated

The beacon toggler block (used when powering up & down) is now a redstone block
adds the ability to trigger redstone contraptions when the TARDIS is powered down
The space between TARDISes parked in TARDIS areas is now configurable
default distance can be set in the config – creation.parking_distance: [distance] – or use the admin command /tardisadmin parking_distance [distance in blocks between TARDII]
each TARDIS area can be set to different distances – /tardisarea parking [area name] [distance]
The tardis.ars permission is now solely used for the ARS console – permission to use the Architectural Reconfiguration System to grow rooms now requires tardis.architectural – update your permissions!
If you’re changing the desktop theme using the same console type you now only have to have 1/2 the upgrade cost in stored Artron Energy
Bug fixes
