Installation files guide and path

Preliminary checks

Describe the problem requiring a solution

We currently have 6 utilities inside fheroes2 folder. Batch+shell

Also, there's no description about some of these files in README. What do they do and what do they for?

Describe the possible solution

Is it possible to place utility files in a separate folder, so we not overflow the root folder?

While downloading a .zip version of fheroes2 users can experience problems with installing. We should add some tips to README regarding necessary files from the OG and what utility would help with them.

Hi @Branikolog , please review this issue. We've done many changes in the documentation as well as users using installation instance don't need to care about extra files in the installation directory. If you think that your issues have been fixed please close the issue.

Hi, @ihhub . Here's how unpacked zip folder looks like in my system. fh folder I suppose it's not a good decision to pack all that scripts into a separate folder, right? Can we name them in such way so they will be placed closer to each other in fheroes2 folder maybe? Something like help_download_demo, help_resource_extract etc. Readme file has description for all installation steps except the purpose of "resource extraction toolset".

Hi @Branikolog , don't we provide shortcuts during installation for these scripts?

I am closing this issue as I've never heard complaints from players about this issue.
