So, if I connect to the game via multiplayer from another computer, where are my inventory items being stored? On my computer, or in the world? If they are on my computer, I would have expected when I went back to my computer and connected to the world, that information would have overwritten. If in the world, then it seems odd that the world could not recognize that I was logged in as me and use my inventory as stored.

Upon urther discussion with my sons, it does seem that I received Jack's inventory, and not a merge of our two inventories. It seems he had a superset, which led me to believe that it was a merge.

I now see posts on forums about people trying to "guard" their single player worlds from other members of their household when everyone uses the same computer. I'm guessing people are asking for instructions on how to do that for this very reason. I guess if I had tossed the world into a server from the get-go, I would have never seen this.
