Whirlwind spell collision detection

Question

I have a whirlwind spell that is a particle emitter that grows over time (see video).

My problem now is how to make it so that I can detect when an object (enemies, crates, etc.) is hit by the spell (within the radius of the wirldwind) and do something (deal damage, smash crate, etc.) but I can't get it to work.

I've tried adding a collider (sphere and capsule) to it but they don't scale properly with the emitter (the capsule just got taller instead of wider, the sphere only grew at half the speed of the emiiter).

If anyone could shed some light on how this could be accomplished, it would be greatly appreciated.

what you can do is create an empty object and place it where you want to display the swirl and put a collider and to detect instantiate your character
