We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

The code is attached. How to decide the offset value? Is there a rule?
For example, to select 1+2, 'VSEL,S,LOC,X,0,B-S_offset*8' works but 'VSEL,S,LOC,X,0,B-S_offset*7' didn't work.
