I want it so magnetic is never reliable as was in RL but does work in game if selected after September 1943, want this because Fremantle boats did not disable them until January 1944.I plan to release a mod

So if leave magnetic set to false, itll leave default pistol to contact but if magnetic is selected it works and will be unreliable as set via S3D correct?
If I'm understanding your questions correctly:

1. 'Magnetic=False' means the magnetic detonator will be permanently disabled in game for the time period specified in the file.

2. You can add a new set of dates with the Add Array item command. I did this with RFB, so that I could disable the magnetic detonator before September 1943 but keep the awful contact detonator settings up to the end of September 1943.

I've worked with these files a lot, so let me know if you have any more questions.
