Yes, in torpedo sim file there is a max magnetic detonation range parameter, but according to the post by TDW, the density and dimensions of collision spheres below ship keels are also an important factor. This is good, because I suppose that the actual magnetic detonation range varied depending on ship mass and even on building material (wooden hulled boats shouldn't trigger any magnetic detonation); by making spheres to stick more or less from each ship's bottom, we can simulate this.
Is there any information available on German pistol's average magnetic influence ranges?
