light errors - my lights turn off based on player position

[seagoat]

I've been working on this map for a while and trying to ignore the problem, but it won't go away:

If I strip everything down and have just one light (light, light_spot, either one), it'll show up but will turn off or on depending on what my character does. This isn't a max distance thing, because if I move my mouse (change my view angle), it'll change as well.

I really tried to find someone with a similar problem before posting this, hopefully someone knows what's going on. Thanks!

The screenshot wouldn't look like anything to you - either the light is on or off, so the level is either black or properly-lit depending on where you move.
