Description

This is a special SteamID you get on LAN servers. Whenever the server has cvar sv_lan set to 1, all human players have STEAM_ID_LAN as their uniqueid. Bots still have uniqueid BOT.

As soon as the cvar sv_lan is changed to 0 the server becomes Internet server and it tries to validate all the players that were on the server. If there are multiple players using the same Steam account, only one of them is validated and given the SteamID, others will have STEAM_ID_PENDING as their uniqueid.

If the cvar sv_lan is changed to 1 in any point, all human players in the server will be assigned uniqueid STEAM_ID_LAN immediately.
