Really? A guy makes a statement about a feature that would be really easy to program in and THIS is the kind of replies he gets?
There was no need to comment on him having a life nor to throw in a random number serving as some sort of comment on how many times he has played. Additionally, you don't even know if he plays with combat off. Sheesh ! There are a lot of other things done as a convenience in the game...what's wrong with mentioning this small item?
With that kind of logic, I suppose we could just tell GM to quit putting automatic transmissions in their Corvettes. After all, if they really want a Corvette, they won't mind driving one with a manual transmission...
Oh, yeah...now, THERE'S an argument for not automating a computerized program--referencing paper and cardboard from ages ago...
An excellent bit of assistance to a post that didn't need half the comments in it.
Seriously!

For all the people who "bombarded" the OP with less than positive replies, perhaps ALL the defaults in ALL the programs you use should be reset every time you open any program.
I posted in the "Suggestions" area so that maybe someone of importance would see it and make a change.
normally, if you have a life, you shouldn't play a thousand games. plus setting a game takes 30 seconds. you would save much more time by shutting off the combats in the advanced setup.

If you're really passionate about the game, you won't mind setup.

Exactly. Nobody complained when board games refused to jump out of the box and set themselves up on the table.

Hello?... Civ Fanatics. That's the name of the web sight. You know...Fanatics
I agree with the O.P.! It's not a huge point, but so what? He felt strongly enough to come here and give his opinion about a GAME. And you decide to kill him for it?
Oh and please describe to me your great life and how it inspired you to jump this thread with hatred.
If you are careful, you can also save Advanced Settings. Find the GameInfo folder, typically here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\sid meier's civilization v\Assets\Gameplay\XML\GameInfo
There are two xml files of interest:
CIV5PlayerOptions.xml
CIV5GameOptions.xml
Be sure to save a copy of these files before modifying them. The CIV5PlayerOptions file already has default commands, which you can just modify. On the CIV5GameOptions file, you will need to add the default command. As an example, in CIV5GameOptions, you will find the Quick Combat option.
<Type>GAMEOPTION_QUICK_COMBAT</Type>
<Description>TXT_KEY_GAME_OPTION_QUICK_COMBAT</Description>
<Help>TXT_KEY_GAME_OPTION_QUICK_COMBAT_HELP</Help>
Then add the indicated line to set the default.
<Type>GAMEOPTION_QUICK_COMBAT</Type>
<Description>TXT_KEY_GAME_OPTION_QUICK_COMBAT</Description>
<Help>TXT_KEY_GAME_OPTION_QUICK_COMBAT_HELP</Help>
<Default>true</Default>
Of course, you'll have to restart the game for the changes to occur, but then you should see the option already checked in the Advanced Settings Menu.
(That setting should be part of the global user interface, and not set per game.)
