Code:
mob/verb
    Upload()
        set hidden=1
        if(connected)

            var/file=file("Maps/playerhouses/[src.ckey].txt")
            if(!fexists(file))
                alert("no file to upload")
                return

            var/p = world.Export("[addr]:[port]?playerhouse:[src.ckey]",file,1)
            if(!p)
                alert("upload failed")
                return // if world not up

            alert("file uploaded")



// SERVER CODE
world/Topic()
    if(findtext(Topic,"playerhouse:") == 1)
        var/X = world.Import()
        var/location = copytext(Topic,13)
        if(X)
            fcopy(X,"Maps/playerhouses/[location].txt")
            return 1
        else
            return 0


Problem description:
When i run the code i get upload failed.im guessing its the copytext proc, but i dont know any alternate method to parse the player's key variable any pointers?

I don't know really know if this will work, but no one else bothered to answer, so why not just use the normal variable for a Players Key? A.K.A. - src.key >.> Not sure It'll help, If it doesn't I'll test the code and tweak a bit.

In response to Thelavaking
nah that wasn't the issue, I resolved it with someone in chatters. I had to use params2list(); much more flexible. But yeah thanks for actually replying :)
