Summary
None
Purpose of change
I was having trouble building the game, and realised it was a silly path issue (I had "+" in the path). The documentation notes no whitespace, but doesn't mention not having special symbols.
Describe the solution
Just added a note and an example about special symbols in the vcpkg path
Testing
It didn't work with the symbols, I noticed that it said the command was invalid in the log. Removed the symbols, and I am building the game.
