I suspect it is to do with your method of creating the dataframe, I would check to see if the columns in the df are numeric, which you can do by:
is.numeric(flat_data$time) for each variable, if it is not numeric (and at least one must be a character, given the error message) then redefine as a numeric flat_data$time<-as.numeric(flat_data$time) I reckon people better versed in R will have a more efficient solution, but that should work......
