I am using Yanfly'sInstant Cast script.  What is supposed to happen is this:

A character has the ability to scan the enemy.  I don't want this to take up a turn (as players tend not to use it if it does) So I have made it Instant Cast.  As well as scanning the enemy, it also debuffs that enemy's DEF for one turn.  In order to prevent the irritating 'Failed' message coming up, it also inflicts a blank state.

All of that happens, but instead of restricting it to just one turn, I can have as many as I like doing that.  So the player could debuff every enemy and scan the whole troop in one turn.  As soon as I select another action, it moves on in the expected way.  If I remove the <instant> note tag, the problem vanishes, so it is definitely located there.

Here is a screenie of the skill.  As you can see, there's nothing exotic there.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?

Thanks.
