Anti-Factor Pseudoku
(Published on 7. February 2025, 22:45 by starwarigami)
Normal Sudoku rules (mostly) apply.
Fill the 9x9 grid with the digits 1-9 (and 0) so that (almost) no digit repeats within the grid in any row, column or box.
(Each unique digit may appear twice in exactly one row, column OR box. No row, column or box may contain more than one repeated digit.)
Digits along a line of length n must not be a multiple or factor of n (other than 1 (or 0)), and must sum to a multiple of n.
Digits on lines outside of the grid are skyscraper clues, showing the number of digits visible from that location in the indicated row or column, where larger digits hide smaller (or equal) digits from sight.

Rule clarification: can a digit repeat in a box on the same column? E.g., could R1C1 and R2C1 both contain 7?
@krytolandros "Each unique digit may appear twice in exactly one row, column OR box". A 7 in both R1C1 and R1C2 repeating in both the box and the column would be in violation of the rules as stated.
Thanks for giving the puzzle a try! Hopefully you'll get some traction and find your way through it. Good luck!
