So, idk if its just like a wiring issue on my part, but ssometimes the basic light bulbs will start flickering, and its not like its the same one each time either, im using 1 generator bank and 3 battery banks so ik i have enough power for it

 
Could it be that these flickering lights are at the edge of your draw distance?  Next time it happens, face the suspect lights and walk backwards (away from lights).  If they go dark immediately, this is probably the case. ESC->Options ->Video has a few settings that might affect this, most notably View Distance.

Could also be a Dynamic Mesh/phantom block TnL issue - hit F1 to open command prompt, then type "pois" (without quotes) and hit enter to toggle on/off. Haven't experienced this one since last major alpha and a major hardware upgrade, so might've already been fixed.

I havent tried it yet, but it fixed itself, i just dont know what caused it

 
This is a bug that I've seen multiple times in A21.  Your lights can randomly change to the flicker/blink mode, change colors, intensities, etc.  When you leave the area and return, they may return to normal or have a different configuration of those effects.
