How would I teleport to a map uisng a specific filename, ie teleport to SHOPS.dmm, and when i choose the x,y,z the Z is only for that file and not for other maps

Ie the files (amount of maps)

Overworld.dmm (75)
Shops.dmm (40)

teleport(Shops.dmi,x,y,1)//teleport to the first map in Shops.dmi

proc/teleport(file/F,var/X,var/Y,var/Z)
//the code here

I don't know if lummox's swap maps can do that, and im not sure if byond can even do that, but im sure, theres an easier way of changing maps.
turf/shop_map

put that anywhere on the shop map

src.loc=locate(/turf/shop_map)
src.loc=locate(1,1,1)//or where ever you wan to go

is the code to change maps.

You can really only have one map in a game at one time. If you include multiple map files, they just get added together on compile (on additional z-levels). If your first map file has 3 z levels, your 2nd map file will end up starting at z #4, etc.

A coordinate-independent solution is often more convenient, such as using locate() with conjunction with the tag var, or a type path. Note the latter isn't reliable as-is if you have multiple turfs of that type.
