KnightLock (Lockout Lines)
(Published on 28. August 2021, 15:20 by riffclown)
Standard Sudoku Anti-Knight, Killer Cage and Lockout Line Rules apply. Lockout Lines-- Endpoints (Diamonds) must differ by at least 4, Digits on the line must be different than the endpoint values and must not fall between them. When endpoints are shared, each Lockout segment is treated as an independent Lockout Line. Digits can repeat on lines if allowed by other rules.

Fun puzzle.
I liked how the cages played with the lines.
Keep 'em coming!

Great puzzle with two of my favourite constraints and nice interactions between them. It's not complicated logic but very easy to make mistakes.
Did not need the LL in Box 5 for the solve.

Found this to be one of the more approachable LL puzzles (even if I had to restart a few times). I'm starting to get a bit comfortable with the ruleset, finally.
I found that the LL in Box 3 wasn't necessary to complete the solve.
