Crash on environment_Step()

[cyber199]

Minetest version is 5.8.0
Game is Minetest Game, just downloaded it today (2024-05-26) so in theory it is the latest version.
Traceback is:

AsyncErr: Lua: Runtime error from mod 'footprints' in callback environment_Step(): /home/user/.minetest/mods/footprints/init.lua:448: attempt to compare string with number
stack traceback:
	/home/user/.minetest/mods/footprints/init.lua:448: in function 'test_trample_count'
	/home/user/.minetest/mods/footprints/init.lua:523: in function </home/user/.minetest/mods/footprints/init.lua:463>
	/usr/share/minetest/builtin/common/register.lua:26: in function </usr/share/minetest/builtin/common/register.lua:12>

My settings are all default except for footprints_hardpack_count which I set to 5. I'll hit the reset arrow and try to recreate the crash on full default settings.

Snow packs down to ice with settings restored to default, and I'll assume the same is true for other nodes. Perhaps the problem is with Minetest Engine's settings page sending that 5 as a "5" as I notice the traceback says about comparing a string to a number?
