This issue has been resolved.
Descriptive Problem Summary:
When map zoom is set to 50%, and CTRL+SHIFT+Click is employed to quick-select something, it never selects what you're currently hovering over. It works perfectly fine when zoom is at 100%, but in 50% it seems to deviate by a lot.

Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:
  1. Create a map with several different types of turfs.
  2. While zoom is at 100%, hover the cursor over a turf or such and do CTRL+SHIFT+Click. The tile should be selected and made the active object.
  3. Set the map zoom to 50%, and try again. It should pick up an entirely different turf depending on if something different is in the arbitrary place the selection is drifting to.
