Default standard to tactical movement

Offhand, what's the ratio of translating Standard Movement Points and Bonus Movement Points into Tactical Movement Points?

Thanks

EDIT: Oh, and if someone knows how, when and under what circumstances the AI will use Emergency Propulsion, I'd be mighty grateful.

Every 2 standard or bonus movement turns into 1 combat movement; the fractions round up. As for the AI using Emergency Propulsion, I think if you look in the AI Designtypes file (or whatever, I don't know much about SE4 AI's) it will say ability required := Emergency Propulsion or somesuch.

I think that he meant when would the AI _use_ the emergency propulsion, not just add it to ship designs.
