3. 3. Installing Godot

   And to Install Godot on Lite
   Extract it directly into the Target, from Command Line:

   sudo unzip -d /opt/ ~/Downloads/Godot*.zip

   But if you are in Trouble to Find Out it on Terminal See: How to Access Downloads Folder from Browser.
   (Here a System-wide Installation, for a Local one simply Run it from inside the Home Directory.)
   Then Rename it to make easier the Path Setup, for the Ordinary one:

   sudo mv /opt/Godot* /opt/Godot

   Where instead for the NET Release with C# support:

   sudo mv /opt/Godot* /opt/GodotSharp

   And again:

   sudo mv /opt/GodotSharp/Godot* /opt/GodotSharp/GodotMono

   Next Fix Permissions with:

   sudo chown -R root:root /opt/Godot*

   Skip this in case of a Local Setup into your Home Folder…
   Finally, amend the User Path:

   echo "export PATH=$PATH:/opt/Godot" >> ~/.bashrc

   And to Reload it simply:

   bash
