I wanted to make another puzzle where you have to draw the line. I marked it as two stars because one star seemed too low last time, let me know what you all think. Either way I'm confident a beginner can do it. Enjoy:)

Rules:

Normal 9x9 Sudoku Rules Apply; Place the digits 1-9 once each in every row, column, and 3x3 box.

Region Sum: There is a region sum line in the puzzle. It starts and ends at the two blue circles placed in the grid (r2c3 and r6c6). The line is divided by boxes into different sections where every section on the line has the same sum. The solver must determine the path of the line. The line does not enter the same box multiple times and only moves orthogonally through the center of cells. The line does not have to enter every box.

Region Sum Variation: Additionally, every box the line enters has a number, N, that is equal to the amount of cells on the region sum line in that box. The digit N must appear somewhere on that box's section of the region sum line. Lastly, N is equal to either the box's number (when counting in normal reading order) or a number that would form a 1:2 ratio with that box number (or 0 if the line doesn't enter that box). For example, in box 2 (the top right box), N could be 1, 2, or 4. If it is determined to be 4, there will be 4 cells of the region sum line and the digit 4 will appear on the line in that box.
