Can't Create Coroutine From C#?

[CannibalVox]

Hi, I'm trying to create coroutines for my methods so that all my scripts can make use of yield. However, it doesn't seem to be possible to call coroutine.create from C#? What's the correct way of working with coroutines?

using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Linq;
using NLua;

namespace CLuaTest
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Lua state = new Lua();
            state.DoString(@"
                function fib(n)
                    if n < 2 then 
                        return n
                    end
                    return fib(n - 2) + fib(n - 1);
                end
            ");
            var scriptFunc = state["fib"] as LuaFunction;
            var coroutine = state["coroutine"] as LuaTable;
            var create = coroutine["create"] as LuaFunction;
            var status = coroutine["status"] as LuaFunction;
            var co = create.Call(scriptFunc);
            if (co.Length == 1 && co[0] == null)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("wat da heck");
                Console.ReadKey();
                return;
            }

            Console.WriteLine("ok all good");
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }
}

Hi @CannibalVox Is there any reason why you can't create from Lua code DoString("corountine.create(...)"); ?

Same results:

using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Linq;
using NLua;

namespace CLuaTest
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Lua state = new Lua();
            state.DoString(@"
                function fib(n)
                    if n < 2 then 
                        return n
                    end
                    return fib(n - 2) + fib(n - 1);
                end

                out = coroutine.create(fib)
            ");
            var co = state["out"];
            if (co == null)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("wat da heck");
                Console.ReadKey();
                return;
            }

            Console.WriteLine("ok all good");
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }
}

As for why I'm trying to pull the coroutine out, I'd like to run a node-style message pump where I hold a coroutine for every currently-executing script and cycle through them resuming them each in turn
