Tardis Sub-Systems-1.12
A Tardis Sub-system is a set of processes that control a function within the Tardis.
A Sub-system Component 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 entities (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
Allows the Tardis to travel onto the coordinates of a Dalek Invasion via the Communicator.
Interstitial Antenna
Prevents the Tardis from being able to materialise inside its own interior and causing a continuous space-time loop.

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 0.1.0E, 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.

Possible solutions
Chameleon Circuit
Exterior shell cannot be changed
Repair or replace component
Temporal Grace Circuits
Entities will be able to take damage when in the interior
Repair or replace component
Stabilizers
Players are required to use manual flight mode when in flight
Repair or replace component
Fluid Links
Mercury leaks occur in interior which damage the player
Repair or replace component
Flight Systems
Tardis cannot fly
If Tardis is still in flight when flight systems are destroyed, the Tardis crashes.
Repair or replace component
Dimensional Dams
Interior dimensions cannot be entered by the player in any way.
Repair or replace component*
Interstitial Antenna
Tardis cannot detect and travel to Dalek Invasions.
Repair or replace component
Thermocouplings
Tardis will continously land inside its own interior preventing the player from escaping the Tardis dimension without cheat commands.
Repair or replace component
*Restoring the Dimensional Dams with a Time Vector Generator will restore the interior to the configuration immediately prior to the dams breaking. The interior will not be reset/regenerated.
