Alright, Thanks for your explanations! I'll learn more about coordinate geometry and (attempt) to understand those formulas better. Appreciate your quick help.

By time dilation factor do you mean the Lorentz factor? In which case I never had it be constant. I had it change with every meter accelerated. I'll also likely research more into coordinate acceleration as that seems to be something I don't know much of either. Thank you for your help however.

So even though I'm only calculating the time it would take to accelerate to certain speeds, I need more than just Acceleration and Time Dilation? I guess one question I'm not sure of, is once you are travelling very fast, would Time Dilation affect say every single meter accelerated. So where it...

I don't understand coordinate acceleration very much. But what I was doing here was calculating how much time it would take to 'accelerate every say meter. Or you could change the accuracy, so how much time it would take for every centimeter. As I thought that would more accurately put Time...

Sorry, I'd thought I had specified that but I guess not, I'm meaning from Earth's perspective, so like how much time would have passed on earth by the time they reached that speed.

So I've learned about time dilation and how getting close to the speed of light can have affects of time dilation. Looking into a bit more I see that when you are really close to the speed of light, say getting to the point of 99.9999999999% the speed of light, then it starts to become that...
