Round and Round

Normal fillomino rules apply. (Divide the grid into ominos. Each cell contains the size of its omino. Two ominos of the same size cannot share an edge.)
A white dot indicates that the digits on either side are consecutive. A black dot indicates that the digits on either side have a ratio of 2:1. Not all dots are necessarily given.
Every omino includes at most one circle. Two circles in the same row/column cannot contain the same digit.
All ominos in this puzzle have size 1-9. This is not logically necessary (or useful) for the solve but allows you to solve the puzzle in SudokuPad if you prefer. Both tools have built in answer check which cares only about the numbers filled in the cells.
Have fun, leave a comment if you enjoy the puzzle!

This is tangential to the puzzle, but does SudokuPad support letters in cells for the answer check? If so, you could do up to 18 pretty smoothly as long as you let people know to use octadecimal (i.e. A=10). I personally end up using the letters that way when doing puzzles with double-digit cell values, and if the setter goes in with that assumption it seems like it would be easy enough for most people to adopt

Interesting puzzle. For me, there was a jump in difficulty about halfway through, but the entire puzzle was manageable. I also thought that the Kropki logic felt pretty different from the rest of the puzzle.

This was the first Fillomino puzzle I got all the way to the end on, lovely, thank you Zetamath.
