2. And now we need a few scripts. For every type of underground we use in our adventure, we add one script inside our main character with names like "footsteps_sand" or "footsteps_wood". The type of these scripts should be Called by other action. In these scripts we set our random variable randomsound to a random value between 1 and the number of sounds we have for that underground.
