I would suggest against starting with a root of c:\ -- I would recommend retaining the "subfolder" of "simutrans", just like the current downloads.
2) Users may not want files at c:\simutrans
C:\ was just used in this example, it could be c:\games\simutrans or anything else thats decided. Also when you double click the exec it opens a dialogue box that can be changed to anything. In this case it would say c:\ if the user then added my transport games\ it would unpack to c:\my transport games\simutrans.
For different paks it could just be made as Simutrans\pak64 or simutrans\pak128 etc. but this will, I`m sure be discussed and decided on.
Another advantage is that it can(or not) automatically over-write existing files, so as paks are updated, so would the users installation be.
Simusetup automatically installs to c:\program files\simutrans, maybe that might be considered. Personally, I prefer not to put games in there as in explorer there are so many folders in \program files it takes ages to navigate to simutrans, but thats just me
I don`t know if this would work for Linux and Macs, so it`s probably all academic anyway.

in fact, I can`t think of how a new download of Simutrans could be easier.(except maybe for the completely new to computers)
for me is it has difficul to understand how put new version so to have more zip rar my good i need a computer curse
