Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Adjacent digits along a green line must differ by at least 5.
A digit N on a gray line indicates that N cannot appear in any cell at exactly the distance N (measured in orthogonal moves) from the origin cell.
Solution code: Column 1, from top to bottom.

4* difficulty. Opening was very clever, mid game was remembering to count

when you say "exactly the distance N" do you mean that "a digit N on a gray line indicates that no cell whose MINIMUM orthogonal moves from N is N"?
Like, if r3c6 were a 5, there's a path of 5 you could take where you "waste steps" and get to r4c8. I am assuming this is not what you mean?
EDIT: Figured out that that's exactly what is meant

Very elegant setting with a rather tricky mid-solve. Thanks for sharing.
