As for dora, dora is an additional bonus multiplier that counts for extra yaku/fan/han. (Dora does not count toward the 1 yaku/fan/han minimum.) If it is one of the non-honors tile, it is the next sequential tile from the dora indicator tile on the wall.
Ex: Dora indicator is 5 of circles, the 6 of circles is the dora tile.
If the dora indicator is the 9 of any set, the dora is the 1 of the same set.
Ex: The indicator tile is the 9 of characters, the 1 of characters is the dora tile.

If the indicator is one of the dragon tiles, then it is the dragon tile of the next color:
Red->White->Green->Red
If it is a wind tile, then it is the next sequential wind:
E->S->W->N->E

Reverse dora is the same except you only reveal the indicator tile after winning when declaring riichi.
And there's also the kong dora, which are extra dora indicators that are revealed when someone declares a kong and takes a replacement tile (up to a total of 4).
