Help with mod error: '=' Expected near 'name'

[AlexRitotir777]

I'm having a struggle on why this is even going on, I cannot seem to find the source of it either: ":44: '=' expected near 'Ritotir' "

If anyone has a idea of what could be the issue could possibly be.

Any help is appreciated!

FYI: This is also using the same template as the "Extended Sample Character Template"

 

PrefabFiles = {
	"Alex Ritotir",
	"Alex Ritotir_none",
}

Assets = {
    Asset( "IMAGE", "images/saveslot_portraits/Alex Ritotir.tex" ),
    Asset( "ATLAS", "images/saveslot_portraits/Alex Ritotir.xml" ),

    Asset( "IMAGE", "images/selectscreen_portraits/Alex Ritotir.tex" ),
    Asset( "ATLAS", "images/selectscreen_portraits/Alex Ritotir.xml" ),
	
    Asset( "IMAGE", "images/selectscreen_portraits/Alex Ritotir_silho.tex" ),
    Asset( "ATLAS", "images/selectscreen_portraits/Alex Ritotir_silho.xml" ),

    Asset( "IMAGE", "bigportraits/Alex Ritotir.tex" ),

	Asset( "IMAGE", "images/names_gold_Alex Ritotir.tex" ),
    Asset( "ATLAS", "images/names_gold_Alex Ritotir.xml" ),
}

AddMinimapAtlas("images/map_icons/Alex Ritotir.xml")

-- Add mod character to mod character list. Also specify a gender. Possible genders are MALE, FEMALE, ROBOT, NEUTRAL, and PLURAL.
AddModCharacter("Alex Ritotir", "MALE")

I don't know if I'm right, but maybe these spaces

Yup, that was it! Thank you for the help!

For the future, if you ever do require a space to be in a table variable name, then you'll have to do:

sometable["some variable here"] = bob

The dot syntax is syntactic sugar so you don't have to use the brackets and quotes every time, a short hand for this.
