Enchancement: Add configuration in game to define folder for mods installation #160

Android 11+ has issue when you have to get workarounds to access android/data folder contents, which isnt convenient for general players and mobile modders who use text editors for modding

I suggest to either allow user to pick mods folder (this extension might be useful https://github.com/yasirkula/UnitySimpleFileBrowser), but this would require the game to use custom API for working with files due to Storage Access Framework on Android.

Alternatively, mods folder cab relocated to the insides of /storage/emulated/0/Documents, since this folder is accessible to all applications without need of special APIs. This would also greatly simplify the creation of a third-party database editor for android, since it sidesteps the whole Storage Access Framework headache.
