Yep, it is this very thing I would like to avoid. I know that ++x is
incremented before the value is tested in a for loop but it is too
difficult to remember. I would never read for(i = 1;i < 10; ++i) to mean
add one to i while i is less than 10, at a glance I would need to think
about it quite a bit before the loop made sense. 
And there is enough senselessness in RPG already without adding a ++
operator to my debuging.
