Syncing a key

A Tardis key can be synced to a Tardis in four ways:

  1. Via provision by a matured Tardis coral. The key will be automatically synced to that Tardis
  2. Right click with key on the Tardis console.
  3. Combine a blank key with an existing synced key
  4. Combine a synced key with an iron ingot to create a second synced key

Syncing multiple keys to one Tardis

See above steps

Locking/Unlocking Doors

Hold the key in the hand and right click on the top block of the Tardis exterior. A prompt “TARDIS Locked!” or “TARDIS Unlocked!” will display on the screen and the doors will close/open.

Finding the Tardis console coordinates

The Console coordinates are NOT the Tardis' exterior position (where it landed). It is the coordinates of the console in the interior dimension.

Place the mouse over the item whilst in the inventory GUI. It will produce a tooltip that displays the Tardis console’s coordinates in the interior dimension.

Refer to the Stattenheim Remote for the Tardis exterior position.

Syncing a Stattenheim Remote to a Tardis

  1. Combine a synced Tardis key with a Stattenheim Remote in a Crafting grid.
  2. This will sync the key's Tardis data to the Statthenheim Remote. The key will remain in the crafting grid.

Notes

  • Each time the player exits the Tardis the doors will be left open. To prevent unwanted entities from entering the Tardis, players are recommended to always lock their doors with the key.
  • As of 0.1.0B, the Tardis keys display differently in the main hand compared to the offhand.
