(Published on 19. February 2022, 00:26 by Chilly)

Finally got around to posting this one. I'm very happy with how it turned out. If you solve, check out the hidden comment for the bonus video showing the intended solve path - hope you enjoy.

The Rules:

  • Normal Sudoku rules apply.
  • Normal lockout line rules apply. Digits in diamonds directly connected by a lockout line must differ by 4 or more. Digits on a line must fall outside the range defined by their diamonds and may repeat if allowed by other rules.
  • Digits separated by a white dot must be consective. Not all possible white dots are given.
