First pass at resource location rendering. Ugly. It took me about 20 minutes to code up, including the time I spent drawing the icons (no suprise there). First time I've used a SpriteBatch. Very easy. Next is the menu for selecting a building type to build. Think Ill try doing that with a SpriteBatch too. The 90 is diagnostic text - I've got things set up so that when over a planet, the cursor has text indicating which grid index its pointing at. Cursor doesn't show in screenshots but the text does.

I'm going to try to patch the resource icons into the planetary model. Right around the resource itself, I'll flatten out the terrain. Then I should be able to render a small model of, like ingots or little crystals or whatever in the same manner as I render the building models.
I'll write a post on the planetary model system in general.
