How do I access functions from one controller in another one?

You do not. If you need a function across multiple controllers it will need to be placed in a library. I recommend you create a "common" library that allows you to store these functions in. Works best for these types of cases.
If you end up with a few related functions then you should probably create yourself a new library for those functions ... like for example if you have 3-4 functions specifically for date/time manipulation.

Search for HMVC and Wick for this kind of functionality. There are some perfectly valid causes for this behaviour.

Just for clarity, (I'm not sure what you mean by "access" functions) but you can use
Code:
class Foo extends Controller {
function one()
{
$this->two();
}
function two()
{
// do something
}
}
