Growing rooms​

tl;dr

It is recommended that you use the Architectural Reconfiguration System to grow rooms.

You can create rooms in your TARDIS. Each room costs a varying amount of Artron Energy. All rooms and the main TARDIS console have automatic piston doors. If your TARDIS doesn’t have these:

  • make sure the plugin is up to date
  • read all the change logs for the various 2.6 versions
  • stop the server
  • delete plugins/TARDIS/schematics and plugins/TARDIS/rooms.yml
  • start the server
  • delete your old TARDIS
  • make a new TARDIS

To create a room, you place the required material (the seed) in front of the stone pressure plate that triggers the opeining of the piston door — refer to the diagram below (seed blocks are marked in red):

Use the command:

/tardis room [room type]

and follow the instructions. The room types and their corresponding seed blocks are as follows:

  • More information about the Lazarus room can be found on the TARDIS Genetic Manipulator page
  • More information about the Renderer room can be found on the Scanner page
  • More information about the Zero room can be found on the Zero Room page
  • More information about Gravity Well rooms can be found on the Gravity Wells page
  • More information about Observatory rooms can be found on the Telescope, Microscope, and Electron Microscope pages
  • The Eye of Harmony room type is harmony
  • The gravity well room type is gravity and requires an empty ARS room slot above the room as well.
  • The anti gravity well room type is antigravity and requires an empty ARS room slot below the room as well.
  • The secondary console room types are: baker and wood

Once the room is finished generating, a confirmation message will be shown.

Changing the room wall block​

By default (most) room walls are ORANGE wool. If you would like to replace all the ORANGE wool blocks with another material, you can set a wall player preference before growing the room.

To see a list of available wall materials, see the walls page, or type:

/tardisprefs wall help

To set your wall block preference, type:

/tardisprefs wall [material]

Where [material] is a block from the wall help list, e.g:

/tardisprefs wall red_mushroom_block

The next room you grow (if it normally contains ORANGE wool) will have the blocks replaced with your preference.

Mushroom passage

Changing the floor block​

Similar to the wall player preference, there is also a floor player preference. If you would like to replace all the LIGHT GREY wool blocks (the default for room floors) with another material, you can set the floor player preference * before* growing the room. Use:

/tardisprefs floor [material]

Removing rooms​

Rooms may also be removed (or in TARDIS terms — jettisoned).

Simply place TNT in the same seed location as when you grew the room and use the command:

/tardis jettison [room type]

Then follow the onscreen instructions.

Jettison rooms

Gravity wells​

TARDIS gravity wells let you travel in any direction without having to walk. You can grow a gravity well that goes down, and an anti-gravity well that goes up. This allows you to expand the TARDIS interior over as many levels as you desire. Using the /tardisgravity command you can also create ‘sideways’ gravity wells.

Visit the gravity wells page for more specific information.

Vault room​

The Vault room will automatically sort items into the chests contained within it.
