VX ACE - holding item limit issue

[dac420]

hey peeps. I have created a mini game within my game..

its a restaurant food tycoon mini game. im having troubles figuring out how to only hold up to 2 plates at a time
to then offer to the customer

atm I have it as. you can talk to all the customers and take there orders. then go pick up the orders which is like 7 orders.. I dont want the main character to be able to hold 7 plates at one time. I want 2 max. in which the main character has to go and deliver the food and then come back for the rest..

please help

variables. if variable is above 2. drop one every time is dropped then add one when its picked up. then just conditional branch your variable each time. basic game making.
