How do you make it show peoples steamid's when they connect and disconnect? Show it in the chat.
This is the wrong section, you should post it in lua questions.

Connect:
[lua]
function GM:PlayerConnect( player )
print( "Player " .. player .. " has joined with the SteamID " ..player:SteamID())
end
[/lua]
Should work, wrote it fast.
And, you should search before.

This works too.
[lua]
function FirstSpawn( ply )
PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, ply:Nick().. " entered the server, their SteamID is: " ..ply:SteamID() )
end
hook.Add( "PlayerInitialSpawn", "playerInitialSpawn", FirstSpawn )
function PlayerDisconnect( ply )
PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, ply:Nick().. " has disconnected, their SteamID is: " ..ply:SteamID() )
end
hook.Add( "PlayerDisconnected", "playerDisconnected", PlayerDisconnect )
[/lua]

If you look at the wiki page GM:PlayerConnect( String name, String address ) I don't see the player object do you? you should search before you post
OP if you want it at the earliest possible time use GateKeeper
Hes not asking about GateKeeper.

He didn't specify how early he wanted it to be called Gate Keeper is a method of accessing the SteamID at the earliest time possible, this is a working solution unlike trying to access the player object through PlayerConnect that clearly wont work since its not valid.
You need to know how to use Gate Keeper.
So why use Gate Keeper when you can use what noforgivin posted?
Indeed. Works on my server :D
