Custom game path #360
Description
For all the work you have done to support custom launchers, Linux shenanigans, etc., you have forgotten the fundamental one: give a user the ability to select a custom game path so the Store-related game directory is not used for modding.
BTW: I've noticed that my original issue was not transferred, so I'm making a new one.

Yep running into the same issue here (Epic Games version).
I'm running Satisfactory via the Faugus launcher, but the path the Mod Manager searches for is not where the Faugus Launcher installs it.

Using neither of these, but would be easily solved by being able to just add a custom path for it to locate it.

I noticed issue #44 was summarily closed with no reason given. I'm assuming by the way the thread was going that they are concerned over piracy. I absolutely own every game I have, but do NOT run them from the Steam location because of today: Very small update goes out and it's another 9G download. Please allow non-standard game locations. My sanity depends on it!
