Simulations are based on mathematical modelling of the real thing. I can pretty well guarantee that no one has done the work of capturing actual single engine takeoff data in a B737 to aid in programming a simulator for that scenario. If indeed you were successful at trying it, all you saw was a "best guess" performed by the software.
