Additional music can be added by placing sound files into Dataa/Music folder following this naming convention
musicmode_runningNumber.fileformat, so for example:
Mainmenu_001.mp3
Mainmenu_002.ogg
Laptop_002.ogg
Tactical_003.wav
*****************************************************************
Different musicmodes are
Mainmenu_ <-- Mainmenu music
Laptop_ <-- Laptop music
Tactical_ <-- Tactical with nothing special going on
Enemy_ <-- Tactical, enemy present
Battle_ <-- Tactical, enemy present and visible
Victory_ <-- Tactical, battle victory
Death_ <-- Tactical, battle defeat
Creepy_ <-- Tactical, creatures present

A few filenames are treated in a special way to facilitate easy replacement of original music.
To replace original music, insert the following named files into this folder
"menumix1" <-- Mainmenu music
"marimbad 2" <-- Laptop music
"nothing A" <-- Tactical with nothing special going on
"nothing B"
"nothing C"
"nothing D"
"tensor A" <-- Tactical, enemy present
"tensor B"
"tensor C"
"triumph"
"death"
"battle A" <-- Tactical, enemy present and visible
"tensor B" <-- This file is also used as battle music
"creepy" <-- Tactical, creatures present
"creature battle" <-- Tactical, creatures present and visible
