I was able to sort through this and thought I would post how for others that may stumble upon this.

I ultimately ended up creating a plugin, this is not what solved the error but as a sidenote. I referenced a plugin I use for good build.cs and uplugin settings.

Ultimately I found this post wherein it is mentioned

Windows’ GetObject is actually a define, and makes anything named GetObject (variable, member functions, etc…) fail to compile quite dramatically.

So people often #undef GetObject after #include "windows.h".

I did encounter this a few times today while searching the interwebs, so for me and my original error , the fix was to place an #undef GetObject after my includes that load ASIO standalone. I can now build, loaded up my game and have my asio tcp client working, fun!
