Add 4 options with cost 11,3,2,3 and use usiz:min=4, usiz:min=5,
usiz:min=6, usiz:min=7 to make it disabled when the cost is not valid.
(cost:single may be usefull too)
(note if there is not limit in the number of element, it wont be good.)

Thanks. I knew there had to be a way to do it, but I couldn't think
of it.

Have you tried setting the # of elements using options? ie, 4 elements
would be the base cost, option1 would make it 5 elements for x points,
option2 would make it 6 elements for y points, etc?
