Will this Trigger work?

I haven't tested this trigger yet, because I need one more player to test it on so I can't do that. I just wanted to know if it looks like it could work.

The idea is that one player types a message, '-ally *color*', and then the owner of said color will get a dialog box, saying '*(Triggering Player)* wants to form an alliance with you' - 'accept', 'decline''.
So basically yes or no.

I used to have this trigger in GUI, and I had one trigger for each player, which is obviously a mess. So I thought I could optimize it a little, and maybe make one trigger out of it.
My biggest worry is that ie Player 1 (Red) types '-ally red', and creates a Dialog Box for himself..

Here's the trigger:

JASS:

function Trig_Red_Ally_Color_Copy_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    set udg_Allier = GetTriggerPlayer()
    if ( ( GetEventPlayerChatString() == "-ally red" ) ) and ( ( IsPlayerAlly(GetTriggerPlayer(), Player(0)) == true ) ) then

I think I fixed my biggest worry in the events, not sure, though.

EDIT:
'TRIGSTR_1414' should say something similar to; 'You are already allied with that player'.
 
>>My biggest worry is that ie Player 1 (Red) types '-ally red', and creates a Dialog Box for himself..
If there is no such event...it wont happen

Your code is such a mess....Why not you use "elseif" function?

Because it's the same thing..
 
1 if will do all the works :D
