This is my response to
Scojo's setting prompt this week, as redeemed by
isajo4002, which was to use coordinate arrows such as those used
here. Obviously, as I'm a terrible team player, I put my own twist on them.
Huge thanks to
aqjhs and
my dad for testing.
Normal 6x6 sudoku rules apply.
FULL RANK COORDINATE ARROWS:
• Write six different 2-digit numbers onto arrows, with the tens digit on the shaft and units digit on the tip;
• Assign each arrow a rank according to the position of its number in a list of all six numbers arranged in ascending order, where rank 1 is the lowest;
• Place each arrow's rank into the cell described by its digits, where the digit on the shaft is a row number and the digit in the head is a column number;
• Rows are numbered top to bottom and columns are numbered left to right.
V:
• Digits separated by a V sum to 5;
• Not all Vs are necessarily given.
Example

Lösungscode: Column 1, top to bottom

Lovely geometry in the opening half and a wild finish

I don't think the opening was that complex, but the puzzle has some nice tricks up its sleeve.

As usual required a lot of work to figure out how the mechanics of this worked. Lots of fun.
