So, you get to the end of your turn, moving whichever units you want, the rest being Do Nothing, Alert, or Fortify. You Save game and Quit to Windows. Or likewise, the Autosave occurs as the last thing to happen that turn.
Then you Load game to take you to that point where you quit. At least that's what you _think_ you are doing. In actuality, if you were to, for instance Load your end-of-turn Save or the Autosave for Turn 100, the program picks up at that point and then **immediately**, before you as the player can do ANYTHING, plays through the AI's between-turns cycle and you _finally_ get control at the beginning of Turn 101.
I don't know about you, but if I want to pick up where _I_ left off, I want the game to resume IN THAT TURN; not the next one. Every other game I've played operates that way. Why does Civ do it differently?
[Note: If you Saved and Quit while there were still units that were active and still had remaining movement points, then you _will_ resume IN that turn. But if you had Saved at the very end, then.... ^^^]
