Hello,
i would like to create mod specifically to change zoom_to_world_can_use_nightvision=true however no success yet.

Could somebody help me figure out the context?

• can i set it up in some callback in control.lua etc?

• is it some game.utils. object?

It's a constant stored in data.raw during the data phase. You need to modify it there. You can't change it in control.lua - that's the control phase and it can't modify constants/prototypes/other startup stuff.
in data.lua should work correctly.

You should read up on the stages and how they work: https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/Data-Lifecycle.html

Thank you very much that was the missing piece i needed.
It just required a little change: Have a nice day.
