Browsing and Reading Stored Guidebooks

After combining your manuals into the Eccentric Tome, you can quickly access any specific guide whenever you need to consult mod documentation.

Accessing Stored Books

There are two ways to switch the tome into a specific guidebook depending on your situation:

  • Manual Selection: Hold the Eccentric Tome in your hand and press Right-click. This opens a book selection screen showing your stored collection. Select the manual you want to read, and the tome will transform into that book.
  • Contextual Detection: Aim directly at a block in the world and hold Shift + Right-click while holding the tome. The tome will automatically detect the block you are looking at and turn into the matching guidebook.

Once converted, the book functions just like the original manual, allowing you to browse entries and recipes normally.

Returning to the Main Tome

When you finish reading, you must return the active book back to the base tome format before selecting another guide:

1. Hold the converted book in your hand.

2. Aim into open space and press Left-click on the air.

The item will immediately revert into the main Eccentric Tome, ready for your next lookup.
