I just tried to exit my game, and while I was at the main menu, the game asked me to engage in battle to which I chose auto resolve, but oh, no that wasn't enough, I also had to choose how to level up my hero...
This, and the fact that all region changes on the map are delayed one turn makes me thing that the event time system implemented in this game is completely out of whack.
When will this be fixed? It's been this chaotic and confusing since Fallen Enchantress!
