Second of my index line puzzles. Hope the new twist is interesting! From testing (thanks CtC discord!) it seems like a hard 2* is appropriate.

Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Index Lines: On an index line, the digit in the Nth cell along the line (starting from the diamond) indicates the position along the line where the digit N appears. If multiple lines exist with the same diamond, each line is treated as separate.
Eg: 3214 would be a valid line; the 1st digit, 3, indicates that the 3rd digit is a 1, and so on.
- In this puzzle, diamonds are not provided. Which end has the diamond is to be determined by the solver.
- White Kropki Dots: Cells connected by a white dot are consecutive. Not all such dots are given.

What a gorgeous puzzle! I loved how you have to consider which end the diamond is on. And once you figure it out, you get so much additional information instantly. Thank you for setting and sharing this gem, ChinStrap!

The ambiguous line direction is a cool twist here!

This a brilliant extension of the index line ruleset. Finding the sneaky breakin was suprisingly tricky for me, but after that it all flowed like a dream, with some very pleasing deductions based on the ambiguity of where the diamonds are. Lovely stuff.
