This puzzle is a follow up of my pyramid-shaped construction found here.
The pyramid's cousin is in town - the staircase!
A similar empty-looking grid accompanies this construction, however there is no anti-knight's move restriction to help you along this time!
Rules:
- Standard Sudoku rules apply.
- Outlined regions are cages. The sum of digits in a cage is given in the top-left and digits cannot repeat.
- Arrow clues show the sum of the indicated diagonal where digits can repeat.
You can play it on f-puzzles here.
Yet again, your comments and ratings are very much appreciated! Happy solving :)
Lösungscode: Columns 6 and 8

Very nice puzzle, Willy!
For me, it was never too hard but remained challenging throughout the entire solve.
Very enjoyable solve as well!
@Philipp Huber - That’s perfect! Exactly what I was hoping for with this construction! I’m very pleased to hear you enjoyed it :)

Puzzles like this one rather remind me of Conway's game of life, you start with a compact seed, then turn on the simulation, and then wait until the pattern unfolds itself. Very nicely done.
@Qodec - Thank youu!
