When searching the server log by Steam ID it doesn't show some event types, such as ADMIN PERMA BANNED. (I hid the players name with "playername")

Granted these might not be direct rcon logs, but they're helpful to be logged for search the logs versus going to the audit or trying to locate the player via the player search etc.

Fri 23rd Feb 08:38:40 | ADMIN PERMA BANNED | BAN: [playername] has been banned. [PERMANENTLY BANNED BY THE ADMINISTRATOR! VAC/Game ban history (114 days ago)] | playername |   | 1
-- | -- | -- | -- | -- | --

I noticed there is a Name 2 column, shouldn't all log messages have the steamid attached these such actions? As you can change your steam name.

Event Types

Includes Steam ID

  • KILL = SteamID in content column
  • MESSAGE = SteamID in content column

Doesn't Include Steam ID

  • TEAMSWITCH = Only Player Name
  • ADMIN BANNED = Only Player Name for both Kick and Ban
  • ADMIN MISC = Only Player Name.

Not every log event comes out of the game server with a player ID attached, some of them only include the player name.

We certainly could make an effort to try to look up player IDs during the parsing, but I'm concerned there would be a lot of weird ways we could fail or do it wrong and start recording incorrect player IDs.

I did ask Abu to update our RCON wishlist that we've provided T17 to include the player IDs in all log types though, that is going to be the ultimate best solution but T17 neglects RCON unfortunately.

@timraay Could you please add that to the wishlist?
Thanks!
