This is my solve path for my "Orrery" sudoku using the Diagonal, Arrow and Killer Cage constraints.
This is the seventh in the series of puzzles I have created exploring the interaction of the diagonal constraint with other regular sudoku constraints.

I have since found out that this puzzle has a striking resemblance to a puzzle by the excellent setter Tallcat called Four Corners. This was unintentional and I did not remember Tallcat's puzzle when I set this. Tallcat has urged me to keep this active; and I have been told that the logic all the way through is different.

This video is a little bit different to my other videos. Because the feedback on this puzzle has been that is has been so challenging, I wanted to show a clean solve path so for this video I am solving using a documented known path. The goal being to both show the logic of the puzzle, and to help people who are trying to solve it and looking for hints from where they are up to.
Feel free to provide feedback as to whether this format for challenging puzzles is good or not.
