Preparation is half the battle with this puzzle. Spreadsheet next to it with enough combinations, which will come in handy at a later stage.
Thanks for this beautiful puzzle.
Thanks for your kind comment. /vis

Smart design! The break-in was easy enough, but I got flustered and had to dis and tris and quadis-ambiguate it which helped me discover the secret of this puzzle. Had a good laugh as I should have found it earlier. Thanks!
Thanks for your solve and nice comment. Happy you saw the intended path. /vis

Very nice puzzle with a not too obvious ending sudoku-wise. I love the picture. Thank you!
Thanks a lot. Yeah there is a little nifty step at the end. But I thought it was so rewarding, that it basically cleans up, that I left it in. /vis

Updated ruleset.

Visumation, the ruleset in the sudokupad is correct but not on this page. The knight's move constraint must disappear. It is certainly the cause of some problems.
Nice puzzle by the way.
Sorry. I didn’t realize it was there. Then the previous comment makes so much sence. Thanks a lot /vis

Cells separated by a knight’s move in chess cannot contain the same digit.
Yes they can. /vis
Sorry. I didn’t realize it was in the ruleset on the page. Now I understand your comment. Thanks a lot. /vis
