Yes, try something like this.
import sys
sys.path.insert(0,
r"C:\Users\jason\Documents\maya\2018\scripts")import assetManager
sys.path is a list of all directories Python will look for modules, prior
to importing it for the first time. It’s a somewhat forceful way of
achieving it however, it’s likely something is not right with your setup.
Have a look at what your PYTHONPATH looks like.
import os
print(os.getenv("PYTHONPATH"))
PYTHONPATH (may) contain paths that is eventually parsed into sys.path.
If it contains anything, then that is where Python will look for your
modules. Next is having a look at your maya.env file of your user
directory, that can safely be empty. If neither of those have any content,
then something more murky is happening. Maya should be able to find scripts
from its own scripts directory without any interference. If all else fails,
remove/move your Documents\maya directory elsewhere, such that Maya can
create a new one without any customisations.
