How do I Display time as a high score?

Basically I have the minute and second timer running but I can't find a tutorial on how to stop the timer once the game is over and how to display it as the score on the score layout.

make 2 new vars

score=0

playing=1

add an event

every 1 second

if playing = 1

add 1 to score

when you want to stop counting change playing to any other value

you can display this var in any text object.

and for resetting set score to back to 0.

I'm sorry all this went over my head.

here you go:

Thanks, I was also able to get help from a friend as well.
