Use SetTimerEx... sorry cant link you up to the wiki since im on phone...neither i can make a code for you atm.

then basically define that public code that the timer is going to use

forward TTimerNam(playerid);

then ur time function

public TimerName(playerid)

and in the public function hide all the textdraw which u have shown before

use wiki samp... and look for SetTimerEx
