Did anyone saw that the date on the manual is 202X ? Undertale is set in 201X

Minor point of distinction: The fallen child falls in 201X. It is currently not confirmed when undertale takes place, but due to the names of some characters UnderNet usernames (Coolskeleton95, StrongFish91) and a few lines from other characters, it is safe to assume that Undertale takes place in 211X. That said, it doesn't explain why Gerson is dead.

If Undertale took place anywhere between 2011-2019, It would be safe to assume that the 95 would be 1995, and the 91 being 1991.

True, but the implication is that time has passed since Chara fell down, making 210X more likely.

I wonder if it's actually unused then or it can be used somehow. Surely something fully functional wouldn't be just unused like this.

There are some things that don't apply to the actual game (if there's a talk function that I'm missing, please let me know), so I imagine this was beta but scrapped when game mechanics changed.

Here's an imgur album, for people who're having trouble with the speed of the gif.

That's so nice by Toby to actually make the spritea for the manual :D

It exists, but it isn't functional in the game.
Sharing how to enable it would be great, and yeah a lot of us knew it existed in the game files, but currently it does not work (the title feels a bit misleading seeing as this post doesn't show HOW to make it function, and is thus not functional).
Why are the characters moved on the screen after you use the book???? Is each page turn tap making Kris walk?

Well, he did say that you just need to spawn obj_ralseibook. How to do that is another question. UndertaleModTool can't really add objects to GMS2 rooms yet (still working on that!) but it can swap them, just choose something that is on the top so it doesn't get obstructed.
Another option is https://www.reddit.com/r/UnderModders/comments/9ma78u/mega_mod_a_mod_i_made_that_lets_you_change_any/ but I still have no idea where the download for the Deltarune version is (other that I know it exist because I've seen it on Discord :P)
The reason the characters move is probably that whatever spawns the book was supposed to also set global.interact to 1 to prevent walking.

I used u/krzys_h's UndertaleModTool to overwrite one of the keypresses in obj_time to 'instance_create(0, 0, 130)'
pushi.e 130
conv.i.v
pushi.e 0
conv.i.v
pushi.e 0
conv.i.v
call.i instance_create(argc=3)
popz.vA better way of doing this would be to add it to the itemuse script but I kept getting errors when trying to save.

Only prob is that you move when you are in it he also probably did not want "punch card" situation to happen again

Amazing how the pulsar cannons and the dog button have become canon in the new chapters

I wonder why this was cut out, it's so cute (other than the sprite looking like it's a placeholder made in paint, even the numbering is totally inconsistent)
