GSF: Illusion messenger behavior with ESF: Illusion
The GSF Illusion messenger goes on lock-out after using ESF Illusion (Clone)
Steps to reproduce
----------------------------
1. Send a message with -project_image <Name> to see the character can send messages
2. Rest to clear the timer
3. Use ESF Illusion (Clone) to create a character illuion
4. Try and send a message with -project_image <name>
Expected result
-----------------------
Message sends and starts a countdown regardless of the ESF clone, same behavior as the -teleport_create and -teleport working independantly
Actual result
-------------------
Observe the error message 'Character must be level 21 and have the GSF Illusion feat. Message not sent. '

Yes, this is not intentional. Allow me some time to fix this.

It's an awesome quality of life code change you made
take all the time needed to fix this one erroneous little piece, as it still works in all other instances!

I just had it fail and give the same message without having made the illusion clone. The only thing I can think of causing it would be the FOIP -ward command against scrying which I had used in that rest cycle.
Characters: Izzy, short for Isabel. Shaena Ash.

Now seems to be always only usable once per rest. I've not been able to succesfully send a second message in a few days.

Thanks for the report! I am currently investigating this.

The clone is, to my knowledge, still an Epic Spell Focus once per rest bonus.
The update decouples "sending an image" from "making a clone", with "sending an image" being the GSF cooldown bonus.

Re: GSF: Illusion messenger behavior with ESF: Illusion
I am aware of this. The clone I was referencing was the one that delivers the message.
Characters: Izzy, short for Isabel. Shaena Ash.
