Question about Dora in Mahjong

[snoopdoggtg]

How do I get point for Dora if it's 9 circles and I don't have any. And what's Ura-Dora and how do I know which tiles are the Ura-Dora ones? I don't think it's explained anywhere in the game rukes. I am always so confused by the points I'm getting for the Dora.

Some of the 5's are Doras too (the red ones) because you have that setting enabled. In your picture, the 2nd and 8th tiles are Dora. Also, the 3 Bamboo counts because it is before the Ura-Dora (opposite rule from Dora). I think you don't find out what the Ura-Dora is until someone wins with Richii.

 

Finally, having the 9 circles isn't what you want. For the Dora point, you want the tile after it, so in this case it would be the 1 Circle.

Actually the result screen shows the dora already after adding +1 to the tile. You can see in the background the 8 circles in the middle of the table.

Ah my mistake. I guess the Dora are just the 2 red tiles and the 4 Bamboo then.
