If the line is not double-sided, the second side's two lines of definitions are entirely omitted.

A full line definition is of this form, describing first the vertices and the line attributes, then the first side's sidedef and sector, and finally the second side's sidedef and sector. Line definitions follow in order immediately afterwards. The line block begins with a counter of the form " lines:" for example " lines:475" for E1M1. It is unknown if previous versions of WorldServer corresponded to editors for earlier Id games, or for the alpha versions of Doom. The header is merely the line " WorldServer version 4". The format used to store map data is made of three parts: a header, a line block, and a thing block. The specials were listed alphabetically rather than through their numerical value. Line specials had names derived from their internal names in the Doom engine, e.g.New textures could be created from patches from within the editor.The X and Y offsets for texture alignment on sidedefs were called "firstrow" and "firstcol".A visual texture selector was included (at least for flats).Things were represented by colored squares.This can notably be seen with stair builders. For this reason, Id mappers would put meaningless dummy tags on the sectordefs of lines whose sectors should not be merged despite being initially identical. The map compiler creates sectors from lines with identical sectordefs.

Right-clicking inside a sector would update the panel with the property of the chosen sector, presumably retrieved from the first line detected by the flood-fill algorithm. Left-clicking inside a sector would use a flood-fill pattern to find all the lines bordering the area clicked and set their sector definitions to that defined in the panel.

For editing sector info, a sector inspector panel was present in the interface.

This explains some of the map errors contained in the IWADs, such as E3M8. Vertices, sidedefs and sectors were extrapolated from line properties by the node builder.

The editor only saved lines and things.

This was useful during Doom development since the format in which the maps are read by the game changed (see the Alpha articles for more information on this subject).

The editor used ASCII text files to save level data, which was then compiled into a binary form by the node builder.

Although neither DoomEd nor its source code were released until April 21, 2015, a certain number of factoids were known beforehand, revealed by its developers, notably John Romero (who programmed it) and Michael Raymond-Judy.
