Pyramid Entrance

This is sort of a reupload, as the previous version didnt have the lines disambiguated, although I really didn't like how I had to word the rules to disambiguate them. But I really like the puzzle, so I removed the line identification. It has a few challenging deductions, but personally I find them neat, and I hope you'll enjoy discovering them. The layout of the puzzle is very much like the one from my other recent puzzle "100", which I really liked and wanted to do more with, and this is it!
Best of luck, and please let me know what you think! Happy Solving!
Special thanks to siron2133 and RoflsALot + Chat for their testing and feedback! Also the people who solved my first version, thank you!

What do the colors mean?
I'm pretty sure that purple lines are either German Whisper lines or Renban, but not sure.
I reasonably certain that the blue line is the Region Sum line, but I have no clue about the green and peach lines.
Thanks
