Christmas Chaos

I hope that chaos before Christmas is already gone! I wish you all Merry Christmas ❤️
I hope you will enjoy and I would be really grateful for all the comments and ratings.

Chaos construction: Divide the grid into nine orthogonally connected nine-cell regions, and place the digits 1 to 9 once in each row, column, and region.

Region separation: Each 2 digits directly adjacent on any inside-grid constraint (i.e., X-Sums and Sandwich excluded) must belong to separate regions.

X-Sums: A star outside the grid gives the sum of the first X digits of its column from the direction of the star, where X is the digit placed in the cell next to the star.

Sandwich: A gift outside the grid gives the sum of the digits appearing between the 1 and the 9 in its column.

Palindrome: Digits along a gray line read the same in both directions.

German whisper: Adjacent digits along a green line have a difference of at least 5.

Parity: Adjacent digits along a red line alternate between odd and even.

Renban: Digits along a purple line form a set of non-repeating consecutive digits in any order.

Killer: Digits in a cage sum to the total given.

Kropki dots: Digits in cells joined by a white dot with 7 have difference of 7. Digits in cells joined by a black dot are in a 1:2 ratio (i.e., one digit will be double the other). All dots satisfying the region separation rule are given (i.e., if two orthogonally adjacent digits are in 1:2 ratio or have difference of 7, but there is no dot between them, they belong to the same region).

If you liked this puzzle, I recommend trying out my other puzzles :-)

Lösungscode: Sixth (6th) row of the grid from left to right (with the symbol "/" marking borders between regions, e.g., 1/23/456/7/89).

Brilliant. Really enjoy chaos construction. Really satisfying to compete, took me 55 minutes.

Terrific puzzle. The region building was quite challenging, but I think I made it harder on myself than it had to be. Merry Christmas!

Very nice! 2 puzzles in 1: first sudoku, then, independently, region building. Sudoku was straightforward, region building was tricky, Thank you and merry Christmas

One of the rare cc’s where regions get constructed after all digits have been found. Nice. Thanks
