Balloon (floating, exploding, balloon animal)

Balloon
Allows players to release a hydrogen filled balloon doggie that floats slowly up in the air. Explodes after 5 seconds (configurable) or when shot. Almost every paramater can be changed by convar. To damage another player, you'll probably have to shoot the balloon or release it in a hallway/room where the ceiling will hold it down near the players.

This should work on DOD:S also, but you'll have to use a different model (the balloon animal is a TF2 standard model).
