This puzzle was set as a gift for mathpesto's birthday. The combination of Fillomino and Region Sum Lines felt very intuitive for me, but some mean tricks are possible. Enjoy!
Rules:
Normal Fillomino rules apply. Divide the grid into regions, such that no two orthogonally adjacent regions have the same size. Write the size of its region into each cell.
All colored lines are region sum lines. For each line, numbers on the line have an equal sum N within each region the line passes through. If a line passes through the same region more than once (i.e. it visits at least one cell of a different region in between), each individual segment of the line within that region sums to N seperately. Every line must visit at least two regions.
Different colors are used for aesthetic purposes only.

Solution code: Row 2 and Column 11

What a gift ! Great construction with head scratching moments, leading to very cool epiphanies ! I knew I wasn't on a wild goose chase when my path led me to the green line between row 7 and 9. Thanks for this beauty !
