use 2 vars, one to store the minutes and otherone for seconds, and when secs get to the 0 --the minutes and set seconds to 59.. I am not in mood to code it, if you didn't understand I'll show you later xD

CMD:mycommand(playerid, params[])

          //code
          FuntionTimer[targetid/playerid] = SetTimerEx("function", 1000, true, "i", playerid);
          return 1;
}
