Item Limit

[Rat3440]

So I made a skript that spawns items at a specific place but it adds up too much. I can't figure out how to add a limiter to the skript. I need it to start generating again after it has been collected.
This is some of my code:

every 10 ticks:
if {summon} is "enabled":
drop {boost::gen} of sand at location(27.5, -57, 2.5, world "testworld") without velocity
drop {boost::gen} of stone at location(17.5, -55, -32.5, world "testworld") without velocity
drop {boost::gen} of iron ingots at location(-37.5, -47, -20.5, world "testworld") without velocity

(this is for 3 dif gens)

Any help would be great

i cant really understand you want to spawn it every 10 tick but make it so if there is 3 of them spawned it well spawn another one? also this is better
 

every 10 ticks:
 {summon} is enabled
 drop {boost::gen} of sand at location(27.5, -57, 2.5, world "testworld") without velocity
 drop {boost::gen} of stone at location(17.5, -55, -32.5, world "testworld") without velocity
 drop {boost::gen} of iron ingots at location(-37.5, -47, -20.5, world "testworld") without velocity

so you want there to be only 1 {boost::gen} at 1 loaction at all time?

Basically it is a "gen" that spawns items at those cords. The boost variable is for a different skript that lets me change the output of the gens but, the gens add up way too much before my item clear. So I was wondering if I can limit how much can be in the stack before it stops spawning.

Excuse me as I am new to skript but i pasted this in and it gave me a few errors on the messages so I just got rid of the {@prefix} but now when I do it and run the command nothing seems to be happening. I'm not sure if i'm doing something wrong some more help would be great. I also still don't understand functions so this is difficult for me.
