Your Steam ID

Your Steam ID

Some games make the server's owner its admin by Steam ID. Avorion is one: with your Steam ID set, you have admin powers in your galaxy. Warp View asks for it when you set up such a game, and you can change it later under the server's Settings.

Your Steam ID is a 17-digit number starting with 7656119: 7656119 and ten more digits. It isn't your account name or your display name, and it isn't secret: anyone can see it on your Steam profile. Warp View never asks for your Steam password.

The easy way: link your Steam account

Link Steam under Account in Warp View. From then on, Warp View fills in your Steam ID for you. You can still change it before you create the server.

Finding it yourself

  • In Steam or a browser: open your Steam account details. Your Steam ID is shown at the top, under your account name.
  • From your profile address: open your Steam profile. If its address looks like steamcommunity.com/profiles/7656119…, the number is your Steam ID. If you set a custom address (steamcommunity.com/id/yourname), use the account details page instead.

Copy the whole number and paste it into Warp View.

Changing it later

Open the server in Warp View, go to Settings, change Your Steam ID and save. The game reads it the next time it starts. Warp View keeps it with the server, so updates and swapping games away and back keep it too.
