This is the second puzzle in a loop series using arrows and cave-like clues. A link to the previous puzzle in the series is given below.
Entropic Stalactite Loop
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Digits along an arrow must sum to the digit in that arrow's bulb. If multiple arrows connect to the same bulb, each sum is calculated separately.
Draw a one-cell-wide loop of orthogonally connected cells. The loop may not touch itself, not even diagonally.
-- All arrow bulbs must be on the loop.
-- The digit in an arrow bulb gives the number of loop cells that bulb sees in all horizontal/vertical directions combined, including itself. Non-loop cells block the vision.
-- The loop acts as a German Whispers line (i.e., adjacent digits on the loop must have a difference of at least 5).
Lösungscode: All digits in row 9 (left to right) followed by digits on the loop in column 5 (top to bottom)

It is amazing to find a unique solution. Even in hindsight there don't appear to be enough clues!
