Normal Sudoku rules apply.
SAME DIFFERENCE - Pairs of adjacent digits on a turquoise line have the same difference (which may be different for different lines).
COORDINATES - Read from some end, "XYZ" on a line indicates "row X column Y is Z". Lines with bulbs must be read from the bulb end. Different lines cannot reference the same cell.
Solution code: Row 1

Tricky puzzle. Some quite interesting logic, especially in the first half, though it felt a little grindy in the second half.
Lovely use of the given, well-used givens are always impressive.

Loved all 3 in the series. All are hard and gorgeous.

Needed to work out some novel logic and juggle different considerations, but there were no huge leaps. A very nice experience!

WOW! Absolutely loved this. The logic in this is so fresh and fun - joyous all the way through - but particularly loved the ending. One of the most satisfying endings I have encountered for a while.
