Application directory

The application directory stores

• the saves (every save is a zip-file)
• the Mods
• scenarios
• configuration.

The directory structure is self-explaining.

You can delete for example the configuration-file, it will be generated new with the defaults. It is recommended to create backups from this directory, before you install a new version.
