Thirteen Years of Bad Game Code

This `for` loop looks particularly curious to me:

  for (int i = this.bindings.Count - 1; i >= 0; i = Math.Min(this.bindings.Count - 1, i - 1))

Why isn't the last expression a normal i--?

Because bindings[10] might have triggered a process that removes bindings 7-9, causing "i" to be out of bounds of the array. I wanted to continue updating the remaining bindings even if some of them got removed.

Wow, that's pretty subtle. Thanks for explaining.
