Hey, when I type sv_status it says my steam id = 28147276, but that's not my steam id. My steam id is: STEAM_0:0:14073638

Is there some sort of formula for converting between these two?

[EDIT] I'm a total ######, it's just times 2....

Is there an easy way to look up steam community id from just the output ns2 gives in console? It seems a bit convoluted.

    It is in fact not just times 2. The <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/wiki/index.php/Dedicated_Server#SteamID_Format" target="_blank">SteamID format</a> is converted like so:

    <!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->  STEAM_0:0:919317: 919317 * 2 = 1838634
      STEAM_0:1:919317: 919317 * 2 + 1 = 1838635<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->(There is a converter available here: <a href="http://ideone.com/k0OLF)" target="_blank">http://ideone.com/k0OLF)</a>

    I don't think there is a way to convert it back seeing as you would not know if there is a 1 or 0 between the colons.

    Well you can just divide by 2, if it has .5 then you know it's STEAM_0:1, otherwise it's 0. You can then use this site to look up the community id: <a href="http://steamidconverter.com/" target="_blank">http://steamidconverter.com/</a>

    Thanks for the clarification.

    Now that made so much sense. Thanks for that! (:

    I've updated the converter to convert both new->old and old->new.
