TARDIM: Refined
This addon draws inspiration from Tardis: Refined and allows players to grow their own TARDIM! Various items and new mechanics have also been added!
Getting Started
To begin, you'll need to find an Ancient City, where you can occasionally discover a TARDIM Capsule as loot! However, after retrieving it, you'll notice that the capsule cannot be placed on farmland, grass, or other common blocks.
Being a Gallifreyan plant, it is not native to Earth and requires special conditions to grow! To create a suitable environment, you can extract Artron from Sculk Catalysts, TARDIM blossoms, and many other items. Applying Artron to rooted dirt will create a Capsule Nest, which provides the necessary conditions for growth!
Then you need to wait until the TARDIM Capsule grows, produces a stem, blossoms, bears fruit, and matures! (Keep in mind that this may take some time)
You'll know the process is complete when a tall, slender TARDIM fruit appears on the stem instead of a cube shape.
After harvesting the TARDIM fruit, you have several options! You can eat it as a decent, though slow, food source, or dry it over a campfire or in a smoker, which allows you to collect more TARDIM capsules and craft a TARDIM! The recipe simply replaces the dragon's breath requirement with dried TARDIM fruit!
Additional Elements
TARDIM: Refined adds a new tool - the Sonic Screwdriver! Currently it has limited functions, but future expansion of capabilities is planned.
It can:
- Open/close all doors/trapdoors/gates (including iron doors and locked doors from Supplementaries, Locksmith, and other mods that may restrict player access)
- Charge lightning rods with lightning (with a long cooldown)
- Refine TARDIM fuel
The Sonic Screwdriver is crafted from iron, gold, and Crystallized Artron (more on that shortly!)
TARDIM: Refined also completely overhauls the TARDIM fuel system! Now instead of simply placing random items in a fuel tank, you'll need to fuel your time ship with Crystallized Artron!
To obtain Crystallized Artron, you need to crystallize Artron Extract (using various crystalline items), then refine the resulting raw crystal either by pressure heating in a Blast Furnace (which is VERY slow), or by using a Sonic Screwdriver in your main hand while holding Uncrystallized Artron in your offhand.
Don't worry about the complexity of the process - Artron is a VERY efficient fuel source.
Easter Eggs
Sonic Screwdrivers can have several custom skins! While the default skin features a universal design, you can use the appearances of some of your favorite Doctors!
To get a different skin, you need to craft the screwdriver together with a dye! (I'll let you figure out which dyes correspond to which skins)
Currently available skins:
- Classic - A screwdriver resembling the design from the classic series
- Reboot - The screwdriver of the 9th and 10th Doctors
- Smith - The screwdriver of the 11th Doctor
- Capaldi - The screwdriver of the 12th Doctor
- Whittaker - The screwdriver of the 13th Doctor
