Glad you enjoyed it.
I was a tiny bit afraid that it would be a bit too hard, since the first Skyscraper is need quite early, like in the RCE #37 Master level puzzle.
I however think that the RCE puzzles on average are harder than the RCS puzzles, mainly due to the intricate Intersections supported by JSudoku for Center Dot puzzles.

The RCS #44 Master level puzzle, is similar to RCS #40C, but perhaps a bit harder.
It requires: 2 Skyscrapers, 1 Two String Kite and a hopefully "nasty" Remote Pairs.
