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.

After Insert Mesh Connection Group, Detect Connections and Generate, you get a connected mesh.
