A radar event opens as a box whose corners stand as far from the flagged pixel as the furthest edge of the pane, then closes in on the cell it is flagging. Each frame the radius drops by this value, and the result is then held at no less than RadarEventMinRadius. The sweep inward therefore runs for the gap between the opening radius and that floor divided by this value, which at the default of 1 is one frame for every pixel of the gap. The radar map covers the pane the box is drawn over.

Landing on that floor is what lets the box settle: only then does the event test whether it may stop turning, and only a settled event loads its timers and becomes eligible for removal.
