Description of Bug Experienced:
I am a spellsword with 17 levels in wizard and 4 levels in Fighter. I am currently level 21 and picked GSF in illusion so that I can cast -project_image and send my message to people instead of using a messanger. Upon reaching 21, I tried using the command and it did not work stating "You must be at least levle 21 and have Greater Spell Focus in Illusion to send your image." During the relevel process it does not work as well. I releveled multiple times and it did nothing to fix the bug.

Steps to reproduce the Bug:
1. Pick Spellsword
2. Get GSF in Illusion
3. Get level 21
4. use the -project_image command

Expected Result:
You should be able to send your message to someone who is in the server and is online as the character's name you pick.

Actual Result:
You get the error "You must be level 21 and have GSF in Illusion to send your image"

Additional Information/Notes

Requires 21 levels in your spellcasting class IIRC. Pretty much have the epic caster feat.

Based on past threads, it appears that Spellswords cannot use any of the special abilities such as -yoink, -project_image, etc.

They're supposed to be able to use non-epic spell focus abilities though. For example, GSF Transmutation unlocks -teleport (single teleport) at character level 21, which works for spellswords.

The GSF Illusion one works for a level 21 fighter gnome.

Yes but the tooltip says "GSF" and the "GSF" is to send the message not make the actual image of yourself that fights. I can still teleport and thats a GSF so why isn't -project_image working.

I am 21. I have GSF. the images show that. The problem lies with the tooltip and the wiki and everything. If it says GSF to send your image and it doesn't work, seems like its some sort of issue. I know spellswords cant use the epic-feats, but they should be able to use the GSF ones

Any update on this? I have taken some focus into GSF for this specific spell, but having these 4 fighter levels and these 22 SS levels and not being able to cast has ruined a bit of the build I had planned for Soliel and the RP of using the ability to send messages.

After checking the codebase I can confirm that:

Normally you need greater illusion spell focus and combined character level 21 to be able to send a message. If you are a spellsword, you CAN NOT send a message, even if meeting said requrements. This is a hard condition on the check. I am afraid this is not a bug, this is intended.
