Non-consecutive Kropki Experiment
(Published on 13. August 2023, 00:19 by HalfBakedLunatic)
Last week I did a puzzle with kropki combined with an XV negative constraint. This is a different variation, with black kropki dots but a consecutive digit negative constraint (anti-white dot!). If you quickly see the implications of that, then it should be fairly straightforward to solve.
The Rules
• Normal Sudoku Rules Apply
• Orthogonally adjacent cells must not contain consecutive digits
• A black dot between cells indicates cell values with a 2:1 ratio, not all dots are shown
• Digits along each thermometer must increase starting from the bulb end

Enjoy the puzzle and please let me know how you like it.

Thank you for this puzzle, I enjoyed it. The initial flurry of digits gave way to some intricate use of the negative constraint, and sudoku, and that was fine by me :)
--Thanks Malrog! Great feedback, glad you enjoyed it :-)
