When it's idling it flickers and stays on constant as driving. Alternator going out?

yep, battery voltage dropping off, may not be completely bad and able to run just enough of a change to keep it running. Has it stalled?

Yep, alternator (or part of it) going bad. Probably time for a new one.

It hasn't stalled yet but I'm gonna take this opportunity to order a higher output one.
