This guide will outline how to find your Steam_ID
What is a Steam_ID?
Your STEAM_ID is a unique identifier that servers use to identify you. No one will ever share a STEAM_ID with you and you will never have the same ID as another user.
How do I find my STEAM_ID?
To find your STEAM_ID is very simple. First you need to be connected to any multiplayer server. Listen Servers do not count.
Once connected, open your console (see below if you do not know how) and type status and press enter.
This prints out a list of all of the users connected to the server and some information about them.
Find the line that has your user name and find within that line your STEAM_ID. (see picture below) It should be listed after your name.

How do I open my developers console?
While in a game, press ~ (located right above the TAB key)
If pressing that key does nothing, you will need to enable the use of the developers console
To enable the console, Open your options (EXC by default) and select options. Within the options menu, select the Keyboard Options tab and check the box that enables the use of the developers console.
