You place a Terran Flag Beacon in an editor. That's pretty much it. The Terran Flag beacon has the place COP thing automatically. You just have to make a trigger that replaces says if a Terran Flag Beacon goes to some location, it centers another location on it, removes it, does some effect or whatever, and replaces the original for another placement.

thanks but i`ve already have theese tools
All you have to do is look for the Flag Beacons in the units part of the map editor you use, select the one you want to place (read, there's one for each race) and voilá, you're set to go. :)
And welcome to WB's! Just don't get a stomach ache (or any other serious burns)... according to your name that is. ;)

Hi BuRn_acID, I'm so glad you could make it to our place in cyberspace. Welcome!
I see what you're asking. No, you can't give the Place COP button to another unit with mapping. Sometimes I wish you could, but unfortunately you can't change buttons at all in your maps, you can only use what's there, and only the Flag Beacon comes with a built-in Place COP button.
How did you find your way here anyway? Did you see the link on StarCraft.org or something?
