D: +Door with health
* '''DoomCute''' - An adjective applied to real-life objects recreated in the Doom engine, usually in highly simplified form. A term invented by [[kmxexii]].
 
* '''Door with health''' - A pejorative name for the [[baron of Hell]], which is widely considered a non-challenging enemy in terms of the player's ability to evade its attacks versus its large amount of health. This makes many placements of the enemy act as a "meat wall," an obstacle that has to be removed by the player in order to progress forward.
* '''[[Dummy sector]]''' - A dummy sector is a sector in a map which is usually inaccessible or unseen to the player, but still serves a purpose. Dummy sectors can be used for special effects that otherwise would break. Notable examples are the imp closet in [[MAP01]], using a dummy sector for sound propagation, and the glowing tunnel room hiding the chainsaw secret in [[E1M2]], where a dummy sector is placed against the tunnel wall to power the lighting effect. Many of Boom's new editing features depend on dummy sectors.
