findradius will not find walls of any kind, not even brush entities afaik (someone correct me if I'm wrong), so I don't see the use of that in your case.

Yeah, just do a few different tracelines in a circle around the player. Set nomonsters to false and the trace will hit monsters/players too.

Any that have trace_fraction set to 1 didn't hit anything.
This will give you a value in trace_plane_normal.
Use trace_plane_normal to set the velocity of the player to travel away from the wall. If you're brave, you can try combining the normals from the different traces so jumping in a corner of a cube will bounce you into the center of the room.

findradius is impractical to use for finding moving platforms, and too clumsy to use to find the bounding boxes of monsters. Just use traceline and it'll tell you what it hit, the angle of what it hit, and where it hit.

Here's an animated gif of me doing it



I just based it off of r00k's wall jumping code so i have no idea why people are having trouble....
