Queen Cages (Introduction)
(Published on 2. October 2022, 16:30 by Crusader175)
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits may not repeat within a cage. If 2 cages are orthogonally adjacent, in this combined area, no digit is repeated within any diagonal in any direction. (e.g. R1C1 and R4C4 can't be the same digit)

R1C4 and R4C1 couldn't be the same number regardless, right, since they're in the same cage? Maybe you should rewrite that example to say R1C4 and R3C2? Unless I'm missing something of course which is usually a good bet when I think I've spotted an error.
Reply: I meant to write R1C1 & R4C4, sorry for the confusion!
