I got a different idea to handle it what I needed to do. Essentially just needed to have events in VGUI to cause methods on server side to run. I decided to make some macros that act like global functions (across modules) built on top of convars with change handlers. I used convars so that the global func can have a parameter. Brief example at the end of the file.
