You could setup collision layers for each team and use trigger colliders on the flag.

On the flag script, add a public Transform variable to be your spawn location, w$$anonymous$$ch you then set in the inspector. Also add a public GameObject variable to be your prefab, w$$anonymous$$ch describes what to spawn. Also set up that variable in the inspector.

In OnTriggerEnter, Instantiate the prefab, and set its position to your spawns position.

 #pragma strict
 
 var spawn : Transform;
 var prefab : GameObject;
     
 // Assume layers have been set up!
 function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider) 
 {
     Instantiate(prefab, spawn.position, spawn.rotation);
 }

And if you want to add a cooldown timer to only trigger every x seconds etc...

 #pragma strict
 
 var spawn : Transform;
 var prefab : GameObject;
 var cooldown = 5f; // 5 second trigger cooldown by default
     
 private var cooldownExpiry = 0f;
     
 // Assume layers have been set up!
 function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider) 
 {
     if (Time.time < cooldownExpiry)
         return;
             
     Instantiate(prefab, spawn.position, spawn.rotation);
     cooldownExpiry = Time.time + cooldown;
 }

This could work, but i work in java script could u help me put it in.. This is my Capture controller script #pragma strict

 var blueTeam : boolean = false;
 var redTeam : boolean = false;
 
 private var redcapturePerc : float = 0;
 private var bluecapturePerc : float = 0;
 
 //FLAGS
 var flagRed : GameObject;
 var flagBlue : GameObject;
 var flagNeutral : GameObject;

 var mistRed : GameObject;
 var mistBlue : GameObject;
 var mistNeutral : GameObject;
 
 function Start()
 {
     flagRed.GetComponent(MeshRenderer).enabled = false;
     flagBlue.GetComponent(MeshRenderer).enabled = false;
     flagNeutral.GetComponent(MeshRenderer).enabled = true;
     
     mistRed.GetComponent(Renderer).enabled = false;
     mistBlue.GetComponent(Renderer).enabled = false;
     mistNeutral.GetComponent(Renderer).enabled = true;
 }
 
 function Update()
 {
     if(blueTeam == true)
     {
         bluecapturePerc += Time.deltaTime * 20;
         redcapturePerc -= Time.deltaTime * 20;
     }
     
     if(redTeam == true)
     {
         redcapturePerc += Time.deltaTime * 20;
         bluecapturePerc -= Time.deltaTime * 20;
     }
     
     if(redTeam == true && blueTeam == true)
     {
         redcapturePerc = redcapturePerc;
         bluecapturePerc = bluecapturePerc;
     }

and i have this one, this is Flag script

 #pragma strict
 
 private var capController : CaptureController;
 
 function Start()
 {
 
 capController = GameObject.Find("CaptureCollider").GetComponent(CaptureController);
 
 }
 
 function OnTriggerEnter(Col : Collider)
 {
     if(Col.tag == "BlueTeam")
     {
         capController.blueTeam = true;
     }
     
     if(Col.tag == "RedTeam")
     {
         capController.redTeam = true;
     }
 }
 
 function OnTriggerExit(Col : Collider)
 {
     if(Col.tag == "BlueTeam")
     {
         capController.blueTeam = false;
     }
     
     if(Col.tag == "RedTeam")
     {
         capController.redTeam = false;
     }
 }

I converted the example to javascript. Please try to solve it yourself. Create an empty game object which will be where you spawn your "something". Create a prefab that represents your "something". Put the script I made on your flag which has a trigger collider. Then set it up in the inspector

Spawn: the location where the "something" will spawn.
Prefab: the asset for "something" which will be spawned.

I have no idea what you mean by " when cap reaches".

"how to destroy it when other team collides it"

Add a Trigger Collider on the flag and OnTriggerEnter, if it's the other team...

Use Destroy(gameObject);

Sry for my english... When player(blue) stands close to flag it goes from 0-100 (timer) and when it reaches 100 flag becomes blue, now i want that when its blue flag it spawns gameobject in player blue base and when it reaches 0 on timer game object in player blue base is destroyed, same for red player... I already posted my capture controller script in the begining. if u want to look I hope that you understanded me,

If you need to solve a different problem than your original question, then make a new question. Don't keep dragging the discussion into "the next step" to make your game complete.

 var redFlag:Transform;
 var scoringBlPlyr:Transform;//scoring blue player
 var bluDis= Vector3.Distance(scoringBlPlyr.position, redFlag.position); 
 var blueTeamScored=false;
 var xAmount= 5.0;//distance from flag where blue scoring player must remain
 var redCanTrigger=true;
 function Update(){
 if (blueTeamScored==true)
 if (BluDis<xAmount)
 redCanTrigger=false;
 }

Thanks for trying to help, but thats not what I ment. I dont need scoring I need spawning. like if flag is triggered by blue, then some items spawn in blue teams base, and if red in red team base. I made a flag with trigger function but I dont know how to make spawn when triggered t
