Installing Embedded Python

Download a version of embedded python. I used latest release for winx64
In Unity, create a new folder under Assets called StreamingAssets.
Extract the .zip of your downloaded Python into the StreamingAssets folder.
To enable pip, download get-pip.py and save it in the Python folder (Assets/StreamingAssets/python-3.9.5-embed-amd64)
- Run get-pip.py in command line. First cd into Assets/StreamingAssets/python-3.9.5-embed-amd64, then execute python.exe get-pip.py
- Now you can install any module you want with python.exe -m pip install module-name
