How to create a soda dispenser

I want to create a soda dispenser that has 3 options to choose the flavor and each flavor will have a different pump and by choosing the flavor you can choose the measure of this full, almost full and half. I plan the pumps to be filled by means of which they are lighted for a certain time as an example, full 6 seconds, semi full 5 seconds and half 3 seconds.

 

I want ideas or tutorials that know how to create it as I get stuck in the design part.

Have a look at some of the CLD example solutions posted in the certification board.

 

(Some comments: Learn about "state machines". Make an intuitive UI, not controls and indicators scattered randomly. Your case structure content differs only by a single diagram constant, everything that is the same belongs outside after the case structure. Decide on a reasonable loop rate. Instead of all these scattered LEDs, use an array of LEDs (at least for the three small ones)! Maybe do some error handling.)
