Id, Name, Dis = rednet.recieve(timeout)
Id, Code, Dis = rednet.redieve(timeout)

it's rednet.receive, and the timeout it's only useful if you actually have a timeout, not just an undefined variable.


file:close

missing brackets.

Fixed code:


local id, name, code
id, name = rednet.receive()
id, code = rednet.receive()

print("Code from ID: ", id)
print("Code will be saved as ", name)
sleep(0.5)

local file = fs.open(name, "w")
if file then
  file.write(code)
  file.close()
  print("Saved as ", name)
else
  print("Error saving to ", name)
end
