Create a trigger on the map, activation blufor detected by opfor or the other way around.

In the on activation put: _null = [soldiername,"F_20mm_white",5] execVM "flare.sqf"

flare.sqf

if (isServer) then {
_flare_guy = _this select 0;
_flare_color = if (count _this > 1) then {_this select 1} else {"F_20mm_white"};
_flare_count = if (count _this > 2) then {_this select 2} else {3};
_counter = 0;

while {alive _flare_guy && _counter < _flare_count} do {
	_flare = _flare_color createvehicle [(getpos _flare_guy select 0) - random 150 + random 300 , (getpos _flare_guy select 1) - random 150 + random 300 , 150 + random 100];
	_flare setVelocity [0,0,-10];
	_counter = _counter + 1;
	sleep 60 + (random 60);
};
};

Thank you very much my friend!

How would I create such a trigger?

If you don't know how to create and use triggers, then you really need to go back to basics and learn about creating missions.

Check out this thread and ask your basic questions in there.

Another method would be in the condition of your trigger put:

{_x knowsAbout player > 1.5 || behaviour _x == "COMBAT"} count thislist > 0

Then on activation would be your flare script.

I know how to create them but I'm not sure how to create the one that he told me.

Here is an example mission.
