Does it appear anywhere in stock levels? While I haven't seen any for myself, my estimate would be that it is used once or twice in the first game, and probably does not appear at all in Doom II. Unmaker 03:37, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

Went through a search in DeePsea and found out that there isn't a single type 14 sector in Doom, Doom II or TNT: Evilution (all v1.9).
As a side note, the other peculiar type, 10, was only found in MAP27: Monster Condo (Doom II) where it was put in one sector. --Jartapran 14:13, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
