Use a boolean:

 var roundNum : int;
 var roundAdded : Boolean = false;
 
 function Update () {
        if(Spawned == SpawnRoundTotal) {
        //you made t$$anonymous$$s conditional.  
              if(!roundAdded) {
              //Check to see if the Boolean is false.
                     roundNum++;
                     //If it is, add 1 and switch the value of the bool so that it is true.
                     roundAdded = true;
              }
         }
 }
