Is it possible for me to have my game FTP a text file or somthing of that sort to a certain server instead of putting it on the server's PC?

EDIT: how do you spell Protocall?

Yes, look up Export() in the reference.

Sentences communicate much better than fragments.

ok fine,

I`m assuming that you know i`m trying to send it to an FTP server(ie: ftp.byond.com), except its not ftp.byond.com

I`m just trying to make sure you know which type of server i`m try to send to

I'm not aware of any way in DM to transfer files outside of BYOND client/BYOND server transfers. I haven't explored too much in this direction yet, so perhaps someone else can help.
