Is there any way to get a user's community URL from these unique IDs? I have a plugin that lets me know who's joining/leaving - with a click that lets me see their profile, makes a lot of tasks easier to do.
I don't see an easy way to convert from UniqueID => SteamID, but I'm also not the best at math.
