Hazy Radio Tower

I woke up one day and decided to perform some black magic.
I present you with a new kind of fog sudoku. Enjoy.
Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply: Place the digits 1 to 9 once each, in every row, column and box.
- Hazy Fog: The grid is surrounded by fog. Placing correct digits may clear some fog. Stars are hiding behind the fog, which make new clues appear in the grid. Clues are always revealed in full and never partially.
- German Whispers: Adjacent digits on a green line have a difference of at least 5.
- Renban: Digits along a purple line form a set of consecutive, non-repeating digits (in any order).
- Kropki dots: Digits separated by a white dot are consecutive. Digits separated by a black dot are in a 1:2 ratio (i.e. one digit is double the other). Not all dots are given.
Solution code: Row 1 (left to right)

I tried to play this in firefox but the clue hidden by the first star didn't show up and I was very confused. I switched to chrome and the clue showed up, so if you're using firefox and don't see a new clue after the first star is revealed, try switching to chrome or edge

Very fun! I discovered the same fog-mask trick a few months ago and am super happy there is now a puzzle with it.
I like the presentation with the stars. Makes it very clear when new clues are added.
