I have come to really enjoy indexing lines, so I wanted to see if you could build them off each other. For reference, there are six indexing lines in this puzzle - two orange and four teal.
Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Indexing - 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. Eg: 3214 would be a valid line; the 1st digit, 3, indicates that the 3rd digit is a 1, and so on.
- German Whispers - digits along a green German Whisper line must differ in value from their neighbors on the line by at least 5.
- X sums - digits separated by an X sum to 10; no negative constraint.
- Kropki dots - digits separated by a white Kropki dot differ in value by 1; digits separated by a black Kropki dot have a value ratio of 1:2. No negative constraint.
Lösungscode: Column 4 digits

Lovely gentle puzzle for someone who has never used index lines before or finds them very confusing (like me!)

Nice and easy puzzle :)
I kept forgetting the indexing rule. I wonder how little need to be changed for it to be solvable with a redban line instead of the indexing line ^^
