Limit page display in pagination?

This is my pagination for members and it works but I need to limit the number of pages displayed. As it is, more pages means a longer pagination. I’ve tried several times to write a second limit to it but so far haven’t been able to work it out.
I’m trying to get it to work like so:

On page 1: | 1 | 2 | 3 | >
On page 2: < | 2 | 3 | 4 | >
On page 3: < | 3 | 4 | 5 | >
and so on. Any help would be appreciated
