Does "Current Player" used in a trigger apply to which player's trigger it is? (Example: Have 1 trigger for Players 1,2,3,4,5, then current player applies to players 1,2,3,4,5?)
Or.....is it just any player who satisfies the condition that "Current Player" was used in?

If you assign a trigger to players 1, 2, and 3, you actually have 3 copies of that trigger and each of the players will run it individually.
When Player 1 runs the trigger the "current player" will be "Player 1", when Player 2 runs the trigger the current player will be Player 2, etc.
In short, current player is whoever's running the trigger.

On a sidenote, setting the trigger to execute for the player group "Current Player" (through Starforge/SCMDraft), will not work. Only setting it to execute for Players 1-8, Forces 1-4, and All Players will work.

How'd you get that theory, current player works fine for players 1-8.

It saves alot of triggers. You could do
----
p1 brings 1 unit to location A
create marine at location b for player 1
----
p2 brings 1 unit to location A
create marine at location B for p2
---
or you could do
---
if current player brings 1 unit to location A
Create marine at location B
---
Thats how it works.
