I wanted to created a sudoku with the same ish amount of clues, which is quite difficult to do! So here's a nice one that I've stumbled upon.

Normal sudoku rules apply.

XV: Cells separated by a V must have digits that sum to 5. Cells separated by an X must have digits that sum to 10. not all possible X or V marks are given.

Kropki Dots: Cells separated by a black dot must have digits in a 1:2 ratio. Cells separated by a white dot must have digits with a difference of 1. Not all Kropki dots are given.

Solution code 'without space', I can't believe it.

Nice one, thanks for sharing. I do agree though that the 18-digit solution code is too long. 9 digits are more than enough and should be the maximum, I prefer even shorter solution codes.
