Hiscore .hi files should be in save_dir, not system_dir. #171

Closed dankcushions closed 6 years ago

dankcushions commented 6 years ago

Currently both the hiscore.dat and .hi files are sourced from (and the latter written to) the system_dir.

The general rule is that system_dir is for support files (BIOS, metadata, etc), and save_dir is for user data (save files, etc). So, .hi hiscore files should be located in the save_dir, not system_dir, and, the hiscore.dat should remain in system_dir.

Currently the two use the path same variable, so this would have to change.

My last commit should fix this (moved the .hi files to the same dir as .nv and .fs files).
