Sudoku Variants Series (445) - Cage relations (a.k.a. XY-cages)

(Published today, 06:00 by Richard)

For this Sudoku Variants Project I have planned to publish a unique Sudoku variant every week.
I will see how long it takes before I am running out of ideas.

Cage relations
Apply classic sudoku rules.
Digits in cages may not be repeated. Each cage has a sum that can be derived by adding all the digits it contains. A diamond between two cages indicates that their sums have a difference (white diamond) or a ratio (black diamond) that is equal to the topmost (in case of a column) or leftmost (in case of a row) digit of the column or row in which the diamond is placed.

Inspiration for this type comes from glum_hippo.

Solve online in Sudokupad.

Solution code: Column 5

Amazing puzzle! The unusual ruleset made it trickier than expected - for me, at least. (I gave 3*.) Thank you very much for creating and sharing another lovely SVS-episode.
