So, as I said, I'm making a Pipe Dreams-esque type game. I have a 16x12 board consisting of three different types of tiles. I want to ability to right click on a tile and drag it to the location of another tile, drop it, and have that tile and the other tile switch places. I can't seem to do it without some of the tiles moving weird ways or having one action affect all tiles of a certain type. Any pointers?

There is an option called "Swap position between objects".

I know, but that's not what I'm asking. I want to be able to click on a tile, drag it to the spot of another tile, take my finger off the right mouse button and have the piece I was dragging go where I dragged it to (but aligned correctly), and have the piece I clicked on second go where the first piece originally was.
I mean, your idea would work if I wasn't actually dragging one piece to another place, and if it comes down to it, I might try a different method in which I just click on a piece to highlight it, and then click on another piece to switch its position with the highlighted piece. We'll see.

You have to make an object that stores the position where the time has been picked up from (I'll just call it Active Object 1.
When picking a tile up, Active Object 1 is created in the same position as the tile picked up. When releasing the button the tile overlapping switches places with Active object 1, then the dragged object goes to the same position as Active Object 1, then destroy Active Object 1.

I tried that before I posted. It didn't work. I think I'm just going to go with highlighting tiles instead of dragging them.

Try using the object's alterable value to determine it, that way it'll only affect one of them and not all.
