Working on something and wanted to know a better was to write the following piece of code, I tried looking at a few other scripts that add +1 to certain things but none of them worked the way I was expecting them to work. Essentially this just needs to add +1 to the tag all the way up to 7 but not past. Let me know, thank you.

            if (IsChildOf(from.Backpack))
            {
                if (chars < 2)
                {
                    from.SendLocalizedMessage(1049512); // You feel a surge of magic as the scroll enhances your powers!

                    acct.SetTag("maxChars", "02");

                    from.PlaySound(0x1EA);
                    from.FixedEffect(0x373A, 10, 15);

                    Delete();
                }
                else if (chars < 3)
                {
                    from.SendLocalizedMessage(1049512); // You feel a surge of magic as the scroll enhances your powers!

                    acct.SetTag("maxChars", "03");

                    from.PlaySound(0x1EA);
                    from.FixedEffect(0x373A, 10, 15);

                    Delete();
                }
                else if (chars < 4)
                {
                    from.SendLocalizedMessage(1049512); // You feel a surge of magic as the scroll enhances your powers!

                    acct.SetTag("maxChars", "04");

                    Delete();
