-/**
- * The base tile layer class is a convenience class provided to simplify
- * the management of a two-dimensional array of base tiles. It takes care
- * of dereferencing the tile array efficiently with methods that the Java
- * compiler should inline, and prevents the caller from having to do the
- * indexing multiplication by hand every time.
- *
- * <p> This is equivalent to {@link com.threerings.media.tile.TileLayer}
- * except that it contains {@link BaseTile} instances. For efficiency's
- * sake, we don't extend that class but instead provide a direct
- * implementation.
