About the PR

Adds new sounds for the vent horde spawning.

Why / Balance

I'm not a fan of the sounds it currently uses, so I found some new ones.
I'm aware this may have balance implications with the vent horde sound and the dragon eating walls throwing people off.

Technical details

Added two new audio files
Changed audio paths in the component as well as changing volume
Updated attributions

I kinda liked that there were now multiple events making the same sound because it prevented you from metagaming that it has to be a dragon that caused it.

In theory I agree with you, but vent hordes always (to my knowledge) announce to the entire station when they're about to pop out of a vent, so the current shared sound doesn't really prevent metagaming anyway (i.e, if you hear that sound and there wasn't an announcement, you know it's a dragon).

you'd be surprised how long it took people on moff to adapt, and how ignorant of alerts people can be. it also lets dragons (if they get lucky) use that to their advantage, seeing as they hear the alert while on-station too.

Every time ive watched vent hordes, the players were totally oblivious until the vent under their feet started creaking lol
