Thanks for the report
Re: Light sources stop rendering too soon if out of view
The same happens with the power supply range of substations, which you can see as a blue area while holding a power pole. At least i think that this issue is very similar.
Re: Light sources stop rendering too soon if out of view
This is a known issue with no simple fix that wouldn't be a huge performance hit (always rendering large sections of off-screen entities).
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
Re: Light sources stop rendering too soon if out of view
this is a huge problem for modders... i wish the drawing_box property did fix this..

Re: Light sources stop rendering too soon if out of view
Search a little harder. Support for custom light rendering distance was added in Factorio 0.17.70 in the form of a utility constant. There is a performance implication because it increases the work the renderer has to do for every rendered frame.
