Play in Sudokupad
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Limitations: Digits may not repeat on any thermometer, on any arrow/circle, and on any same colored line or dot (rules 1-9 below).
1. Digits on a thermometer increase from the bulb to the tip.
2. Box borders divide a blue region sum line into segments with equal values. The value of a segment is the sum of its digits.
3. Digits on an arrow sum to the number in the attached circle.
4. Digits on a purple Renban line form a set of consecutive numbers in any order.
5. Adjacent digits on a green German Whisper line have a difference of five or more.
6. Every three cells along a teal line contain one of each modular set (147, 258, 369).
7. Adjacent digits along a red line alternate parity (odd/even).
8. Black dots connect cells with a 2:1 ratio.
9. White dots connect consecutive digits.
The grid is partially covered in fog. Placing correct digits may clear fog somewhere in the grid.
Note for clarity: The gray circles revealed by clearing fog are thermometer bulbs.
Solution code: Column 8 top to bottom.

I found it quite hard. Stuck a few times but there was always some tiny point i had overlooked. Lovely puzzle overall.

Is there a solution for 1-8 as well? I see that the link rules are still 1-8.
---I fixed the link and rules
I don't know if it solves without the full limitations rule, but I intended the white dots to be without repeated digits

I noticed the circles were thermometer bulbs and then still filled them out with only odd digits... So dumb :)
