From HLSW Wiki

What is the Global ID Database?

The Global Player ID Database is a tool incorporated in HLSW that allows for advanced recording of player information. To access the Global Player ID db in HLSW, click "File > Global Player ID Database Editor". Listed are all clients that have connected to servers where you have RCON control, while you were connected to the server using HLSW.

The Global Player ID Database records WONIDs, SteamIDs, UT-IDs and BF-Keys (unique ID to every player), the names each player has used before, what type of player they are (marked by you in colors), and comments you may have saved about each player.

Enable Global Player ID Database Recording

Default setting is to NOT record player information and store in HLSW. To enable this, click "Settings > Settings" and navigate to the 'Misc' tab. Check the box that says "Automatically add player name with known WONID to WONID DB". This enables your computer to start recording information about players that connect to your server while you are logged in with rcon, and running HLSW with your server selected.
