Spring RTS Engine

Rather than using textures we should be able to use basic vectors, lines and points to represent untis when zoomed out. This would allow a greater amount of information to be shown without the blocky blurryness of textured icons, nice clear smooth defined shapes.

For an example of what I mean look at the icons in homeworld 2, they're easier to see and are sometimes smaller than the icons in spring.

Quite some work since some OpenGL compatible vector graphics library would be needed.

OTOH, I think it would be possible using LUA already? (using custom gl.Line stuff etc. in a DL)

Indeed, lua would be preferable.
