Salt and Pepper // Salz und Pfeffer
(Published on 12. January 2022, 18:16 by FullDeck-Missing)
The saltshaker on the upper left is a Renban line consisting of a set of consecutive digits in any order.
The pepper shaker on the upper right is a German whispers line with each cell differing by at least five from neighboring cells along the line. NOTE: Digits cannot repeat along the German whispers line.
The digits in the large circles at the tips of the shakers must appear in the four surrounding cells.
The numbers in the salt grains (white Kropki dots) tell the difference between the cells they join.
The numbers in the pepper flakes (black Kropki dots) tell the ratio between the two cells they join.
Solution code: Row 2 (left to right) followed by column 9 (top to bottom); 18 digits, no spaces.

Very nice puzzle, I thought I was stuck with a deadly pattern at the end. It is easy to miss variations to common rules :P

Did you know that whales only live in salt water? Pepper water makes them sneeze.
Thanks for the fun puzzle.

The puzzle is nice but I've ended up with 2 solutions on it. (68 pair in R14C89)
>> Please note the constraint that digits cannot repeat along the German whispers line.
>> I have respected the German whispers line and the digit next to it allowed both 6 and 8.

Loved this except that I ended with a deadly pattern 3 times before I realized I missed a small but important rule.
Well constructed!
