Ok.  I've gotten tile drawing to work using the paintOverlay() methods in GUIHex. IMO, this looks a TON better.

Tiles are being drawn and rotated properly.   I've even gotten hex selection working (first click selects the hex, second and subsequent clicks rotate it).

However, there's still quite a few painting bugs in the frame, especially related to the scrollbar.


Erik - Can you take a look at how neighbors and entrances are assigned and make sure they're correct?  I think we're at a point where we need to verify this is working correctly.  Even some of the hex painting code relies on checking neighbor hexes.

I'm also thinking that rather than having a seperate property for TileID, we should use the Label property that's already there.  Any thoughts here?
