atm only EntityPrototype (data stage) has entity sounds (mining, mined, walking, etc) in it, i would like a way to access these at runtime for a specific LuaEntityPrototype

Those sounds can be played using the SoundPath.
Or do you want to do something else with the sounds?

i would like to get the mining sounds for any arbitrary entity but will not work as entity.prototype is a LuaEntityPrototype (runtime prototype) and the mining_sound property is only available in EntityPrototype (data stage)

Ah, I see what you mean.

Why?
