Change footstep sound for player?

[aubergine18]

Is there a property that allows alteration of footstep sound for a `player` prototype?

Also: What is the heartbeat sound for?

Well, there a whole folder at data/base/sound/walking that has all sorts of walking sounds. But, the walking sound of a player is not set in player's prototype - it is set in data/base/prototypes/tile/tiles.lua Seems like players walk silently if there is no sound set to a tileset they're on.

Also: What is the heartbeat sound for?

When at super low hp, you can hear the heartbeat.

Thanks for the infos. Looks like I won't be able to create character specific footstep sound.

You can swap a players character with a new one with different sounds. Depends on how often you need to do this.

Yes, I can change character but as far as I can tell the only sounds that allows me to change the sounds for heartbeat and eating. As Reinard-kun mentioned above, the walking sounds are associated with terrains not player characters.
