Well now it's my turn to say that your puzzle is so much better than mine haha. Beautiful logical chain all the way through -- something I gravely lack -- and finish, and all this on a very fun canvas, kudos!
~Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words!
I still haven't manage you puzzle (ID:0005S8)... I still own you this, but I didn't give up yet... also, it would be really cool to see the 'pilot' that led to this awesome variation!

Haha, don't worry about it, I let puzzles simmer in my head all the time myself XD
About the pilot, I had uploaded it on the site but it had only one solve after two days, so I figured between being too confusing for beginners and too simple for seasoned solvers, it had no audience and I deactivated it. Here's the links if you want to check it out:

- https://git.io/JYGBA (extended)
If you'd like the solve credit on the site, feel free to tell me and I'll reupload it :-)
