    Hi everyone,

    I have a quick question about the best place to read and write user files for our game:
    We're currently using 'Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments' but I have recently seen a post from a unity forum member that Application.persistentDataPath is better (can't find the post right now..)

    Can anyone confirm this or recommend the best location to ensure no read/write issues for the user?

    Thanks!
