Update GUI slot

[Mattllama987]

Hello, i need help with a little something. Ive never really understood how to make a GUI auto update a slot. Im working on a Admin Menu, and want to check a few things that would need to be updated in a slot in the gui. What i have now gives no errors, but wont format the slot. It just stays blank and the players skull isnt there. So if someone know how to fix this, please let me know ASAP.

Server: 1.14.4
Skript: 2.4.1

Thanks!

Also not sure why the indentation is off

while name of player's current inventory is "&c&lAdmin Menu":
                    set slot 13 of current inventory of player to player's skull named "" with lore "%player's ping%"
                    wait 1 seconds

Can you give us a bit more code, if this was meant to be an event, there is no event as such.

Ill post the full thing. But the part at the bottom is what im stuck on. The While part.

command /menu:
    trigger:
        if player has permission "admin.menu":
            open chest with 6 rows named "&c&lAdmin Menu" to player
            format gui slot 17, 18, 26, 27, 35, 36, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 50, 51, 52 and 53 of player with black stained glass pane named ""
            set {_num} to 0
            loop 10 times:
                format gui slot {_num} of player with black stained glass pane named ""
                add 1 to {_num}
            format gui slot 49 of player with barrier named "&c&lClose" to close
            format gui slot 10 of player with lever named "&a&lRestart Server" with lore "&5&lThis will restart the server" and "&5&land kick all players!" to run:
                execute console command "restart"
            format gui slot 11 of player with glowing paper named "&a&lReset everyone's balance" with lore "&7&lThis will reset all player's" and "&7&lbalances on the server" to run:
                execute command "/eco reset **"
                send "&c&l[Menu] &7Reset everyones balance!"
            format gui slot 12 of player with redstone named "&c&lChange GameMode" with lore "&7&lChange your gamemode" to run:
                if player's gamemode is creative:
                    set player's gamemode to survival
                    send "&c&l[Menu] &7You are now in Survival!"
                else if player's gamemode is survival:
                    set player's gamemode to creative
                    send "&c&l[Menu] &7You are now in Creative!"
                while name of player's current inventory is "&c&lAdmin Menu":
                    set slot 13 of current inventory of player to player's skull named "" with lore "%player's ping%"
                    wait 1 seconds

A possible solution would be to set a variable when the player opens the gui, then delete it once they close the gui.
And then say

while {temp.%player%} is set:
    set slot...
    wait 1 second

That sure did it! Thank you, and have a fantastic day!
[doublepost=1579202048,1579201123][/doublepost]Okay, but now it shows the slot in every GUI i open. Ive tried a few ways to not let that happen. But every menu i open, slot 13 will be the players head.
[doublepost=1579202116][/doublepost]Here is what i have now:

command /menu:
    trigger:
        if player has permission "admin.menu":
            open chest with 6 rows named "&c&lAdmin Menu" to player
            set {temp::%player%} to true
            format gui slot 17, 18, 26, 27, 35, 36, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 50, 51, 52 and 53 of player with black stained glass pane named ""
            set {_num} to 0
            loop 10 times:
                format gui slot {_num} of player with black stained glass pane named ""
                add 1 to {_num}
            format gui slot 49 of player with barrier named "&c&lClose" to close
            format gui slot 10 of player with lever named "&a&lRestart Server" with lore "&5&lThis will restart the server" and "&5&land kick all players!" to run:
                execute console command "restart"
            format gui slot 11 of player with glowing paper named "&a&lReset everyone's balance" with lore "&7&lThis will reset all player's" and "&7&lbalances on the server" to run:
                execute command "/eco reset **"
                send "&c&l[Menu] &7Reset everyones balance!"
            format gui slot 12 of player with redstone named "&c&lChange GameMode" with lore "&7&lChange your gamemode" to run:
                if player's gamemode is creative:
                    set player's gamemode to survival
                    send "&c&l[Menu] &7You are now in Survival!"
                else if player's gamemode is survival:
                    set player's gamemode to creative
                    send "&c&l[Menu] &7You are now in Creative!"
            format gui slot 14 of player with glowing paper named "&bAdd &a$1M" to run:
                add 1000000 to player's balance
            while {temp::%player%} is true:
                set slot 13 of current inventory of player to player's skull named "" with lore "&6Ping: &a%player's ping%" and "&6Balance: &a%player's balance%"
                wait 1 ticks
on inventory close:
    set {temp::%player%} to false

EDIT: I think i might have found the issue.

You can use

if name of player's current inventory is "blah blah"
