Increment/Decrement Macros don't work with RepNotify

I found that if I use ++/-- macros introduced in 4.8 on a variable with RepNotify property it doesn’t call notify function on local client, though it does on any clients increment is replicated to.

Hi kgamble,

Thanks for report! This is a known issue with variables passed by reference, as initially reported here:

Increment/Decrement macros use a pass-by-reference input, so same problem will occur. I’ve added your notes to report, and I’ll post here if I see any update. Thanks again!

I have just come across this as still being a thing. Should it be reported as bug?

It’s not a bug, since it is working as it was designed. But it was designed poorly.
It should be reported as something to improve. Not holding my breath since this issue is still happening some 10 years after the original post.
