Which type of detonator do you prefer?

I always use impact pistols, unless I pull a dog-fighting maneuver and go for a "six - o'clock" shot.

There's something I don't get, though... weren't "magnetic" torps in real life set for BOTH magnetic and impact? Got really frustrated at the begining when a couple of times the magnetics would go "clank" against the target and do nothing.... well, almost nothing, a couple of times I've had it happen that they bounce back a bit after hiting the target, and then they go at it again an succeed in going "under the keel"

... anyway, the point is that there should be a way to rig the for both
