Its because you have them in Player 7 section.
Here is an example of how Share Vision AIs work:
With this trigger:
Player 3 wont see anything happen, but player 1 can see player 3. Player 3 will only notice that in the alliance status screen it is now shared vision checked with Player 1.

With this trigger:
| Trigger |
| Players: |
| ¤ Player 1 |
| Conditions: |
| ¤ Conditions |
| Actions: |
| ¤ Turn on shared vision for player 3. |

With triggers its backwards than normal. So you move that into the human's folder.

Think of it as "Get Vision" instead of Share Vision. Thats the way I remember.
Why don't you include all the triggers that use the switches. How are we suppost to know how the switch "Dropship move" gets set. The best i can assume is you don't have a trigger for it at all.

There is a slight delay in turning off and on the vision. (just to tell you).

Also note that if the "create dropship" action is creating for a specific player (not "current player"), then a dropship will be created for that player for every player in the game, because every player runs the trigger.

That only happens if its in All Players.
If you do this:
then it will only and always create for player 1.
If you do this:
| Trigger |
| Players: |
| ¤ Player 1 |
| Conditions: |
| ¤ --Conditions-- |
| Actions: |
| ¤ Create (Unit) at (location) for Player 1. |
then it will only and always create for player 1.

Or multiple Players checked to own the same trigger
Or the first trigger listed in this thread. Where the trigger is owned by all players and the player on the Create Units trigger is unspecified.
