Travel through time with Plaaasma’s TARDIS Mod

Hey this is going to be the video Wiki tututorial for the time Vortex mod SL Tardis mod um this video is going to have no Cuts however everything that I can label will be labeled in the YouTube progress bar so if you’re coming back for reference then you should be able to

Find everything that you need with that being said let’s just get straight into it I’m going to get our Basic Essentials here and I’m just going to get some Spruce planks as a building block so The Vortex interface module this stores all the data about the Tardis and this is also considered the

Center of your Tardis so you’ll also hear me refer to this as the core sometimes the throttle uh this has on and off this basically just tells your Tardis to go you can also pause flight um so you can chill in the vortex this is the coordinate

Designator uh this has X Y and Z and then this big button right here will toggle between decreasing and increasing coordinate values you see right now we’re on increasing it’s going to go up and now we’re on decreasing so it’s going to go down um so I’m going to set

The y coordinate to 100 and then yeah we’ll just go 0 0 and we’re going to take off this is all you need to have a functional Tardis although as you saw it will be annoying to use cuz you’re going to have to use this coordinate keypad in

Order to set your coordinates which only goes five at a time um we’re flying pretty close uh but it will it always takes a constant time to fly through every want to note that which is both a good thing and a bad thing cuz if you’re close by

Obviously you it’s a little bit annoying but if you’re far away then you get to travel a million blocks in you know 45 seconds um you heard that lightning bolt I’ll explain that in a minute it I’m just going to make this platform bigger cuz it will need to be

Soon get rid of these keep my building block and let’s get to the size upgrade this is the only module that needs to be directly touching the interface module it it doesn’t actually have to be directly touching it I should say it can be one block away so this is

Actually a valid location for it it is within a one block radius um I’m going to plop it back here and I’m going to put a single size upgrade in here so each size upgrade will extend the radius by one so you see by default it was

3×3 I put one in there so it’s going to be 5x 5 if I were to put another it would be 7 by 7 and then 9 by 99 11 by 11 so on so on so on and I’m going to fill in this empty space just so it doesn’t look terrible

You know what I’m actually going to do a second size upgrade cuz this is getting cramped so let’s put this guy in here and then let’s just go a little bit over and you see the particles are a much bigger area now that signifies what all is going to be

Taken with it also to note it only goes one block below the interface and the max y up that it’s going to go is is I believe 12 if I remember correctly um these particles that you’re seeing uh they don’t look very nice right now cuz we’re going to such a close

Destination but if we were going somewhere further then the radius of the circle would actually be the proper size and there would be a nice big cylinder around us you will get to see that here in a second because I’m going to show you the coordinate keypad make sure the textures line

Up oh yeah I have to place it this way you see I actually used the Minecraft textures for all these blocks that way it fits really nicely with whatever you want to build um so this right here if you ever forget you can right click on it and it

Will tell you how to use it um but as you can see it says you do SL Tardis set and there you go you now can control your Tardis using commands at least the the coordinates the target so you’ve got SL Charis set chords which is coordinates dim which is

Dimension and then rotation this will be in degrees so you’ve got 90 you know 180 270 and 360 um I should also note the this module right here unlocks dimensional travel you cannot travel Dimensions unless you have this PL um let me set the coordinates super far away

And I’ll explain a block while we’re traveling and you’ll also get to see the nice tunnel effect so dematerialize here and I will start explaining The archon Equalizer so you heard the Thunder when we were about to land and that is because we didn’t have this archon

Equalizer um as you can see in the tool tip it will prevent the lightning from striking your Landing Zone if you have this so we’ll place that down like I said I’m trying to keep a Minecraft theme with these textures so I actually straight up took the redstone

Torch texture and put it on this block and I will add more detail to this don’t worry um this is kind of a temporary texture for this cuz I don’t really know what this would look like if any of you have any suggestions please let me know the exterior scanner uh I’ll

Actually explain that later that’s not useful to us right now we should almost be there o you can see our coordinates are actually completely relative um and you can see the nice tunnel now you can’t but you could see the last tunnel there um so next tick we should be

There yep so now we have arrived at our destination and now I’ll show you the ground module so this guy you see we’re floating let me place it the right way around you see we’re floating in the air and I don’t want that uh let me go a little bit over cuz

It is also important to knowe right now in a protot tardis if you teleport to a location that is within uh the size of your Tardis of your current location so if my location was 0 0 0 0 and the size of my Tardis is 10 I would have to be at

Least uh 10 blocks away from the other location or part of my Tardis will get destroyed uh that’s not a permanent feature I will fix that I’m not sure what causes it but that is something I want to know um y save our coordinates I’m just

Going to go a little bit away so that doesn’t happen and I’ll show you the grounding module as you can see we’re in the air and I don’t want that I want to be on the ground I don’t want to have to figure out what the ground coordinates

Are and then you go there so we’re going to take off again and unfortunately I might I might add a little cut here all right we should be about to land just I didn’t want to have to think of stuff to say while we were in flight

So I just decided to cut that part Y and there you go as you can see we are on the ground even though we did not change our y quarts so that is what the grounding module with us and now I think it’s time we make our

Tardis bigger on the inside so that’s what I’m going to do I’m going to get the ukian upgrade going to right click on the Tardis I’m going to right click again and I’m going to step into our now bigger on the inside Tardis and now I can show you the exterior

Scanner if I right click on this you see it says it’s not safe to exit because uh we’re actually you know technically floating but that’s why I give you the block that’s out there so that you can judge for yourself and you say oh it’s water that is actually safe if says lava

Then you know it’s actually not and you see it’s got the correct coordinates we’ got Overworld and that is what the scanner does and now let’s go into the Tardis door so as you can see it’s spawned one of these for us um um we first got in

Here I’m going to break this little area right here cuz we’re not actually going to need this that’s just so you can a little bit of Freedom how big you want to make your your is okay but you saw by default it spawns on this side and it puts us

Out on this face you also notice the door is foursided that’s what I’m getting too say I wanted to put the door over here well it’s still going to spawn me out this face and I most likely don’t want that unless I’m building something very unique so you can block up the other

Faces and now it will have you come out of thisit so let me to show again on the other side I’m just going to put it really close not going to worry about building a little thing for each one I’ll go back in and you can see it’s

Sply on the right side so that allows you to just have a little bit more freedom of design and choose EX exactly where you want your door to be now keep in mind the only entry door is going to be the one closest to the original door

Point so was like you know right about here so if I have two doors which you can do by the way both of these are valid exit doors but only this one will be an entry door cuz it is the closest one to this point so you could mark it with a block

Or you can just Mark the coordinates or you can just remember where it is I mean you just got to remember it’s in that general direction about 10 blocks away and actually I’ll keep that there and that should be all you really need to know I don’t know why I’m putting wood

There I should put glass there let’s do blue BL color all right uh let me break this you don’t need the size uh upgrade or anything whenever you’re inside of a bigger on the inside tarus so we can actually just break it and let’s do a

Flight with the bigger on the inside tus let’s go to a million also I should have noted this earlier um but I kind of just skipped over it the rotation thing this only works when you have a bigger on the inside Tardis this rotates the exterior this will not rotate a Proto

Tardis just want to clear that up see I’ve updated the coordinates pull the lever and we’re going to dematerialize so again in here it takes a constant uh time for flight I’m trying to find a nice math function to use to determine flight time everything I’ve

Used it’s either like a little bit too fast for close distances or too long for long distances or it’s way too fast for long distances and I I just can’t get a right uh function going on here but eventually it will change it won’t always be a constant flight

Time yeah we’ve got these nice time rotor particles I think I’ll make a Time rotor Block in the future that’s animated um just kind of like the classic who wants that’s one block tall that would go up and down of course we’re in an ocean you see

We have changed coordinates to 1 million and the grounding module worked the water which technically counts as the ground all right and that is the basic mod review um if you’re just going to be using this normally then you can go ahead and exit out of this tutorial now

If you want to add some stuff like remotely controlling your Tardis then you should keep watching that is where the computercraft API comes in I’m going to get myself a wireless pocket computer and an advanced computer and I can just put the Advanced Computer like right there I’m going to put an

Ender modem on it and I’m just going to I I coded this before I made this tutorial I’m going to put a little recall script in here or it’s not even really a recall script uh it makes it so you can type coordinates inside of this thing and it will

Remotely send this Tardis to that destination so we’re going to start off I’ll have these ppin links in the descript description so you can use them if you want for the computer we’re going to do past spin put and then this I think I have to do the uh name of

The file first so you’re going to start up okay no oh I did I did put I’m an idiot get and then start up there we go and then we’re going to run startup and naming it startup makes it so whenever this computer Compu turns on it will automatically

Run and then for the pocket computer know this is honestly just not not much going in here not much going on in here oops I got the whole link instead of the code at this point I could have typed all the code that’s in here faster than pasting all

This okay cuz as you can see oh I ran it didn’t I I meant to do edit startup this is uh not much this literally this gets an input string io. read and then it sends a redet signal to this computer keep in mind this zero this is

The ID of the other computer okay this will most likely be different for you if you have other computers on your server and how you find out the IDS of your computer is let me first of all this we going to go into the one that we

Need the ID of and you’re going to type Lua and then you’re going to type print .g computer ID and make sure it’s capitalized correctly and you put the parentheses just like how I have them and you press enter and it will tell you the computer ID so you see the computer

ID is actually two so I am going to have to change it in this script which I Do by doing edit space startup and I’m going to change the zero to a two very simple run startup and then I’m going to run startup and now if I type numbers in

Here like 100 100 100 in here yep set chords to 100 100 100 so what this allows me to do is set Block Stone uh I’m going to get the coordinates of this targeted block so and replace those with five and then we’re going to go one above it cuz that

Is actually where I want the test to go um I don’t need to make PL big I’m going to stand here because actually if you materialize over an entity it will end up inside your Tardis um open this guy up there we go and then I should be able to type take

Off and we yeah we’ll see it start to dematerialize you can hear it that’s gone and now I will patiently wait right here but obviously you couldn’t you know recall script isn’t the only thing you could do with this I mean you could literally remotely send it to go pick up

Your friend or something or even go pick up an entity it doesn’t even have to be a player there we go we’ve materialized over ourselves and we’re back in the Tardis now thank you to my friend Owen for recommending a add computercraft uh compatibility I think this is an absolutely amazing

Feature um now I I don’t think I can imagine the mod without it anymore um but that is going to conclude the vortex mod video wiy so uh thank you so much for trying out the mod if you have any suggestions or you want anything changed then let me know in the

Comments or on the curse warch page um there might even be a Discord by the time you’re watching this I’m thinking about making one um but yeah thank you again goodbye
