Ask yourself, what's the definition of a cap? My definition for a level cap would be the maximum level attainable.

This is a basic limit that can simply take advantage of the greater than or less than operators. You would want to compare the current level with the level cap to see if the level cap is still greater than the current level. The code would go before the game actually raises your level, and it would stop the code from continuing at that point.

Ignore the comments. Probably something such as;

mob
    var Level = 1 // your level
    var LevelCap = 10
    var Experience // current experience
    var MaxExperience = 10// total exp needed to level up
    proc
        LevelUp() // the level up proc
            while(Experience >= MaxExperience && Level < LevelCap) // while your experience is greater or equal to your current experience
                src << "Level Up!"
                Level ++ // +1 to your level
                Experience = 0 // reset the experience
                MaxExperience = round(MaxExperience * 1.5, 1) // just a random formula (from Lummox's post)

You'd want it to be Level < LevelCap, or else you'd be able to level up with a level equal to the cap, allowing level 11.
