How to flag this point?

[IAMK]

I have been twirling my fork around for a few hours and have finally reached a fairly solid point in my script. One thing which is not coming to me though, is ideas on how to flag a specific point. I have attempted doing it a few ways with no avail.

I won't be posting my code unless it's REALLY required (It will be extremely difficult to understand + it's for work). I think the following will be able to get the idea across easily.

What my code does:
- Go as deep as you can ($depth ;Goes from 1 -> 5).
- Increase the value of $X[$depth] as much as you can ($X[$depth] ;Can be a number 0 -> 5).
- When the value of $X[$depth] = 5, decrease the depth by 1.
- When the sum of all $X[$depth] elements = 10, shuffle 1 to the highest point (left-most numbers = depths):

- When $depth = 1, decrement $X[$depth] and jump back up to the first non-0 AND do not increment it, causing it to do:

^ Is what I don't have working. I currently go back to depth 5, see a 5, jump out to depth 4, see a 4, then increment it to 5 (don't want this to happen) before decrementing it by 1. I want to go back to depth 4 and decrement it, then do the +1/-1 shuffle while jumping out to higher depths.

 

Thank you in advance.

Unable to read the OP?

@IAMK to give people a better understanding, you might try writing the function in pseudo-code if you don't have that piece coded entirely:

for $depth = 1 To -5
    ;do this
    ;then this
next

That is what I was asking

I don't know what's wrong, but I can't type anything in the previous post, sorry.

FYI: I have scrapped this extremely complex method and started from scratch with a much simpler design (one anyone can read and understand - New thread).

I'm closing this thread.
