Trouble with custom character in prefab and modmain

[RedRock911]

At one point I had been a working creature, since then I went way to deep into errors, and decided it would more likely be best if I started all over. In saying that, I'm repeating some mistakes, I know I've corrected before, but can't seem to find the exact mistake i am remaking now. 

The errors I know are going to be in the prefab, and I know that they are more then likely due to me not writing the script for the game to know I am wanting to create my creature, if it even knows it exists at all. So I think I have to add a line "create_mycreature" somewhere. But I dont know where, And im unsure of the right context.

my modmain.lua looks like this:

 

--[NEW] This is how we tell the game we've created a new prefab.

PrefabFiles = {knuckles}

 

 

--This function spawns the creature at the player's position.

function SpawnCreature(player)

 

--Get the player's current position.

local x, y, z = player.Transform:GetWorldPosition()

 

--[NEW] Spawn our new creature at the world origin.

local creature = GLOBAL.SpawnPrefab("knuckles")

 

--Move the creature to the player's position.

creature.Transform:SetPosition( x, y, z )

end

 

--Tell the engine to run the function "SpawnCreature" as soon as the player spawns in the world.

AddSimPostInit(SpawnCreature)

 

while the prefab is here:

 

--[NEW] Here we list any assets required by our prefab.

local assets=

{

--[NEW] this is the name of the Spriter file.

Asset("ANIM", "anim/knuckles.zip"),

}

 

--[NEW] This function creates a new entity based on a prefab.

local function init_prefab()

 

--[NEW] First we create an entity.

local inst = CreateEntity()

 

--[NEW] Then we add a transform component se we can place this entity in the world.

local trans = inst.entity:AddTransform()

 

--[NEW] Then we add an animation component which allows us to animate our entity.

local anim = inst.entity:AddAnimState()

 

--[NEW] The bank name is the name of the Spriter file.

    anim:SetBank("knuckles")

 

    --[NEW] The build name is the name of the animation folder in spriter.

    anim:SetBuild("knuckles")

 

    --[NEW] Here we start playing the 'idle' animation and tell it to loop.

    anim:PlayAnimation("idle", true )

 

    --[NEW] return our new entity so that it can be added to the world.

    return inst

end

 

--[NEW] Here we register our new prefab so that it can be used in game.

return Prefab( "monsters/knuckles", init_prefab, assets, nil)

 

 

 

I know I have posted something like this before somewhere, when I made the exact same mistake last time. 

Matter of fact , with this tutorial, I think I'm just going to make a few creature mods, just so I can start getting the hang of the scripting.  I know I am telling the game to look for an asset that it cant find, I just cant seem to find this damned simple error.
