Pathway Progression doesnt work for me

Hello everyone!
This is my 1st post here :slight_smile: For quite some time I am slowly digging through the Unity Learn Pathways. I have started the essentials pathway with 2022 unity version, and now I have re-started it using Unity 6.
Now my problem is that the Pathway progress tracking doesnt always work correctly. The biggest issue I have is with completing elements. For Example this is how my Junior Programmer progress looks like:
(Picture 1)
Notice how all elements are complete and yet the overall “Tutorial - Install Unity Software” is not complete. I would probably ignore this if it wasnt for the fact that each time I use go to next step, in further course elements, it always sends me back here clearly believing that this is my nearest incomplete element. I know its a small issue but its soooo annoying.
What makes this even worse, is when I change the courses unity version to 6 the sub-steps dissapear:
(Picture 2)
This same issue also persists on higher levels where I can see a Pathway completed - and yet all of its steps inside are marked as not completed.

I tried different browsers (Edge, Brave, FireFox) effects are always the same. Please help :frowning:

I see very low traffic on my topic :smiley:
Lets start slowly:

  1. Is there anyone else experiencing the same issues?

For some reason I think I might have experienced something like this a long time ago, I have no details though.

Something is telling me I went back to the steps (In your case 1-5) and selected “Mark step as incomplete”, and then at the bottom of the tutorial, at least on the course I am currently looking at, there is an option for “Mark all complete and continue”.

I keep doing multiple things like marking steps as incomplete, marking them complete manually, marking them complete with a button, refreshing the steps as incomplete than changing unity versions - many random approaches that sometimes do resolve the issue - (this latest situation with Tutorial: Install Unity Software took like 30 attempts?) but no repeatable resolution pattern emerged in therms of website buttons :frowning:

I have the same issue with the Unity version 6. No sub-steps and if I want to complete a mission controll point it sends me back.
I am doing the Creative Core with Google Chrome. Does anyone have a solution or do I have to get creative? The only way I could complete a mission was doing it for version 2021.3.
I only did the intrduction Mission Checkpoint: I am afraid of getting some problems if I would like to do it for the version 6 with using the pathyway for 2021.3.

Thanks for looking into it :slight_smile:

Just so you know I am eagerly waiting :slight_smile:
I have serious problems with focusing and distractions, and those progression issues are detonating my brain so hard :frowning:

I have the same issue. Super annoying. But mine doesn’t even work for any of the other versions besides 6 either. And it’s for all steps, not just substeps.

I have the same issue!

Additionally, I’ve completed every checkpoint in the Essentials Pathway, but it still shows 0/6 missions completed!

It’s so annoying and really kills the gamification of the Learn Platform!

Yeah, same. It’s a massive issue for me because it ruins the learning experience being jarringly sent back to the first course at the end of every lesson.

Seems like a common issue. There’s been a few posts about it.
I’ve even got the Credly badges and they still say 0/6. You’re not alone. Glad to see the one reply from @unityCM_Kirk looking into it/guidance.

This drives me crazy. Sometimes it accepts my progress and then you can “resume” at the beginning!

It’s not about the “fun” of the gamification, it’s about navigation!

So where are we with the solution? :slight_smile:

Hi all, so sorry for the issues with the pathway progress. We’ll be rolling out a major update to the pathways system over the next several weeks, addressing one pathway at a time. You may notice some minor changes to how they look and function - hopefully all for the better. I can’t share specific dates for specific pathways, but we hope to address them all in short order. If you’d like a preview for the new system, check out the Mobile AR Developer pathway, which was our proof of concept for the upcoming changes - https://learn.unity.com/pathway/mobile-ar-development

Just a note that we’ve rolled out this overhaul for Unity Essentials today. Hope this helps resolve the progress issues if you’re working on that Pathway.

EDIT: Actually after a refresh it updated in to 100%. So all looks good!

When can we expect the update to reach the Junior Programmer? :smiley:

Hello there! Sorry it took some time for me to come back and check. I hope that you do unit test your own solutions tho :smiley:

Anyways. I came back and re-tested the Unity Essentials and it seems that the upgraded version works a lot better. I dont have any issues with returning to old points if I stay within the pathway I am being guided towards the end.

HOWEVER. When I finnished it all and went back to the summary it is still not perfect:


For some reason it chose an arbitrary 46% complete and some nodes simply didnt check out - when I am sure I did the entire tutorial.

Same issue here


I completed the firt 4 items and they never were marked green.

Have you tried refreshing now? For me it worked after a delay.

Yes, tried many times, also I tried on a mac computer and have the same issue, is weird, if i try to complete these incomplete courses i press complete all and go to next step but then i have a screen saying that something goes wrong.

The same here. I am trying to start Essentials pathway for a first time but after selecting version 6 I got the same page with error 404
