This is for doing what steamidfinder does inside of Sourcepawn.

ok i am a bit of a newb to coding but im looking to do this but have a fuction that checks a mysql database for the steamid and then write to it with the community id in the next column and i cant figure it out

What is STEAMID64?

The Steam ID for user profiles on the steamcommunity site, at least if you don't have a short profilename set in your profile settings.

They look something like 76561197972407386.

The reason they're called STEAMID64 is because they are too large to be stored in a 32-bit number.

Update to First Post:

I've just rewritten the function in the first post to be smaller and more efficient, and now allows for leading zeros if the output string is too large. Hopefully this upgrade should be pretty final.

bool:GetFriendID(String:AuthID[], String:FriendID[], size)
{
    ReplaceString(AuthID, strlen(AuthID), "STEAM_", "");
    if (StrEqual(AuthID, "ID_LAN"))
    {
        FriendID[0] = '\0';
        return false;
    }
    decl String:toks[3][16];
    new upper = 765611979;
    new String:temp[12], String:carry[12];

    ExplodeString(AuthID, ":", toks, sizeof(toks), sizeof(toks[]));
    new iServer = StringToInt(toks[1]);
    new iAuthID = StringToInt(toks[2]);
    new iFriendID = (iAuthID*2) + 60265728 + iServer;

    if (iFriendID >= 100000000)
    {
        Format(temp, sizeof(temp), "%d", iFriendID);
        Format(carry, 2, "%s", temp);
        new icarry = StringToInt(carry[0]);
        upper += icarry;

        Format(temp, sizeof(temp), "%d", iFriendID);
        Format(FriendID, size, "%d%s", upper, temp[1]);
    }
    else
    {
        Format(FriendID, size, "765611979%d", iFriendID);
    }

    return true;
}

this is way better than doing big number additions with strings

Zephyrus, your version looks pretty slow to me. Unless you think integer addition is slower than using temp strings, multiple formats, StringToInts, ReplaceStrings, and needless if-statements - not to mention the fact your code won't detect other non-normal SteamIDs. Most of your code really isn't needed (and about 50% longer) - you should think twice before saying those functions are way better than basic addition/subtraction. Please think again before posting code which is very similar to a post someone made a year ago too.

Just to confirm your code however, I've ran a quick profile on it, running each function 100,000 times. Twice.

Your code - Avg. Time: 0.081687 then 0.094406 (0.0880465 total avg.)
My code - Avg. Time: 0.072591 then 0.067664 (0.0701275 total avg.)

Profilers are never complete proof, but at least it stops you, Zephyrus, from using awkward phrases like "this is way better".

Impressive work =)

To be honest, Zephyrus's version could probably be optimized by replacing the Formats with strcats and IntToStrings as appropriate, but I'm too lazy to see if it actually makes a difference.
