Tardis Mod
by Spectre0987
Players who want a portable base with a pocket dimension can use Tardis Mod, a Forge mod that adds a time machine inspired by the Doctor Who television show.
What it does
The mod adds a travel machine that moves through time and relative dimensions, with an interior that is larger than its exterior. The interior is an infinitely sized pocket dimension whose rooms and corridors can be expanded, and its portal rendering uses non-Euclidean geometry. A travel dimension location is included, and the timeship is described as sentient, with Emotional Traits systems that affect its behavior. Its console uses a minimalist hands-on design.
Tardis Mod is built around a survival-friendly loop: the console is operated by hand, and multiplayer groups can share a single ship. Custom dimensions can be added through the configuration file, and dimensions can be blacklisted there as well. Energy moves through the ship with a Roundel Tap pipe, items move with an Item Access Panel, and fluids flow through doors while a Shield Generator is active. The ship can also be programmed with custom functions through CC:Tweaked.
Forge is the only loader, and Minecraft Forge must be installed beforehand. Players do not need to know the Doctor Who show to play the mod. It works in singleplayer and multiplayer, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files cover 1.16.5, 1.19.4 and 1.20.1, with 1.20.1-1.1.6 as the latest file. The code is under All rights reserved and is not open source.

A long time ago, or in days to come, there was a schism that raged throughout the stars. A mighty Time War was fought between two powerful races that stretched across almost every dimension in time.
