Tardis Sub-Systems and their components

A Tardis Sub-system is a set of processes that control a function within the Tardis.

A sub-system component or circuit is an item that allows for a sub-system to function when installed into the Tardis console.

Types of Sub-systems and their Functions

The following table shows each Sub-system, their function and its required component.

Sub-System	Function	Required Sub-system Component
Chameleon Circuit	Changes exterior shell	Chameleon Circuit
Temporal Grace Circuits	Prevents players and mobs from taking damage inside the interior until the circuit is fully depleted.	Temporal Grace Circuits
Stabilizers	Allows for Stabilized flight	Stabilizer Circuits
Fluid Links	Allows for Flight	Fluid Links
Flight Systems	Allows for Flight	Dematerialisation Circuit
Dimensional Dams	Sustains the interior dimension. Without it, the player cannot enter the Tardis.	Time Vector Generator

Installation and Removal

Right click with the circuit on the Tardis console to install the circuit

To remove a sub-system, use the Tardis Monitor, click on Sub-Systems Readout, then click the subs-system to be removed. The sub-system component will be placed in the player’s inventory.

BUG: As of 0.0.8 Patch 3, removing the dimensional dams will kick the player out of the exterior faster than the game can place the item in the player's inventory, which causes the Time Vector Generator (TVG) to be left behind in the interior. The only way to access the interior is to craft a new Time Vector Generator and installing it. This is done by right clicking with the TVG on the Tardis exterior.

Maintanence and Potential Consequences

After each flight journey, most sub-systems experience wear that can decrease a sub-system's durability by 1%. Hence, all sub-systems that are installed require regular maintenance to ensure the Tardis is operational. 

When a sub-system reaches 0% durability, the Tardis will suffer a variety of consequences. The table below explains this in detail.

Sub-system component	Consequence at 0% health	Possible solutions
Chameleon Circuit	Exterior shell cannot be changed	Repair or replace circuit
Temporal Grace Circuits	Players will take damage when in interior	Repair or replace circuit
Stabilizers	Players are required to use manual flight mode when in flight	Repair or replace circuit
Fluid Links	Mercury leaks occur in interior which damage the player	Repair or replace circuit
Flight Systems	Tardis cannot fly If Tardis is still in flight when flight systems are destroyed, the Tardis crashes.	Repair or replace circuit
Dimensional Dams	Interior dimensions cannot be entered by the player in any way.	Replace circuit* (as of 0.0.8A, cannot be repaired)

*Restoring the Dimensional Dams with Time Vector Generators will restore the interior prior to the dams breaking. The interior will not be reset.
