According to the gmod wiki, (I have no clue what player_connect is either but..) data.networkid is not steamid, but unique ID. I could be completely wrong, I think I have seen Garry call it a unique id to be steam id before in the past.

I don't think so, it worked just fine in the last version I gave. I guess I would have to double check, but I'm pretty confident that it is steamid seeing as it worked.

Yeah, I think I had made a mistake. I didn't finish reading the wiki.
Local steamid = data.networkid // Same as Player: Unique ID ()
Local id = data.userid // Same as Player: UserID ()

With that in mind though, what function in ulib allows ulib to search in the users.txt for if a player exists in it, and then grab the group data, if that's possible? Because if what I'm thinking is possible, I could fix my player joined announcement script to actually show colour for players who are connected.

MrPresident recently added this to ULib. I believe you could possibly fetch uteam's colors for groups after that.
EDIT: Keep in mind that my code on first post of page will error if the user doesn't exist. I figured whoever uses it can figure that out.

Alright, thanks. I'll check it out and see if I can get something to get working. I'll post on my own favorite thread (Questions, Questions, Questions! thread) if I have any issues.
