Magical injured flying knight
(Published on 12. June 2021, 22:22 by Udo Spemyn)
Rules:Normal sudoku rules apply. Cells, which can be reached within one or two knight moves do not contain the same digit as the starting cell. Exemption of this rule are Cells that are 3 cells away in one direction and 1 cell away perpendicular to it. (See picture: Red cells cannot contain a 1, Blue cells could be reached within two knight moves, but can contain a 1)
Cells separated with a black kropki dot have the ratio 1:2. Cells connected with X or V sum up to 10 or 5 respectively. There are 3 3x3 magic squares in the grid, where all rows, columns and diagonals sum to 15. These magical squares can cross the border of boxes and can overlap, but they do not have to. The center box is one of these magic squares.
This is my first attempt at making a Sudoku Riddle. I hope the break in is not too difficult.

Made it clear that magical squares can overlap, but do not have to.

es ist nicht gesagt, ob sich die magischen Quadrate überlappen können

The explaining picture had a mistake

I'm very sorry to all that attempted this before.
After a comment by Cane_Puzzles, I realized that my 'flying knight constraint' is impossible to implement, and I forgot a few cells in the constraint. I changed the constraint a bit and explained it with a picture. Now it should work.

Added Link to play. Sorry, this is my first post and I'm not too accustomed to the system yet

I didn't understand the double knight's move because the way I understood it broke the puzzle immediately. It is a new rule so can you please provide an example?
Also, I can't understand whether magic squares can cross 3x3 box borders or not and if they can, whether I can repeat digits in a magic square. (I know what a magic square is so I'm guessing repeating digits is not allowed, but it would be nice to have that clarified too.)

Changed difficulty, because I realized it isn't a 4 Star
