Well, for one, i'd keep all my entities inside a type list. So when your doing your radar, simply loops through all the entity. Do a distance check on each one to see if they will be displayed on radar. If so, display a cube at it's position. Watch out though. You don't want too many things on radar, as it will add to your surface count. 'll knock together an example for ya.
