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.
|

Stabilizers |
Allows for Stabilized flight |
|
|

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.
