About

GetSteamIDForPlayerID converts a UE4 player ID into the corresponding Steam ID. Use this command when you have a player's in-game ID but need their Steam identifier for ban lists, admin records, or cross-referencing with external tools.

Run it in the server console or admin command line by providing the target player's UE4 ID as the argument. The command returns the Steam ID, which you can then use with other admin commands or third-party ban managers that track players by Steam account rather than in-game ID.
