So lately i dug up hammer and got it working, decided to make some balls.

I got this idea about an earthquake ball, it works fine so far, earthquake, shakes stuff, etc.

But i'd like it to create that dust ring like the thumpers do, does anyone know how to make that effect?

I think those dust effects is built into the entity of the thumper (the point entity name elludes me at the moment).
