Add permissions

If you are using a permissions manager that has per world config files, you would normally need to manually add permissions for players when they create a TARDIS in its own world. By setting add_perms: true in the TARDIS config file, you can get the plugin to automatically add permissions groups with your desired permissions attached to them.

To do this:

  1. With TARDIS installed, run the server once so that it creates its default files
  2. Stop the server and edit plugins/TARDIS/permissions.txt
  3. Use the example (in file and) below:

Example permissions.txt​

/plugins/TARDIS/permissions.txt
#first_group
tardis.use
tardis.room
tardis.timetravel.player
tardis.timetravel.location
-tardis.exile
#second_group
tardis.enter
  • Groups names MUST start with a #
  • The first line is the name of the permissions group the player should be added to, so it would be something like: Timelord or Donor
  • Then it's just one permission per line (any permission, not just TARDIS ones) that you want to give this group
  • Add a minus in front of the permissions to make it false.
  • If you want to add other groups, put the group name (with a # at the start) and add the permissions for the players in that group

In the example above the first_group is the one that the TARDIS owner will be added to. The second_group would be used for any companions that the first_group player might want to tag along (they can’t build TARDISes, but can enter anyone else's if they are a companion).

This feature supports Essentials GroupManager and bPermissions only at this stage.
