 When loading a level, Orxonox currently does not display a progress bar.
 Since it can take a while for a level to load, it would be nice for the
 user to see whether anything is happening.

 A progress bar (as seen in other games) would improve the user experience.
 One would have to implement a progress monitor in code and also add the
 graphical component for it to the game, making this a possible two-person
 ticket. The loading screen could consist of two elements:

 - A bar that shows the actual progress
 - some flashing/rotating/otherwise moving icon to show the game
   is doing something even if the progress bar is standing still
