    Method SetComponentEnabled

    SetComponentEnabled<T>(Entity, bool)

    Records a command to enable or disable a ComponentType on the specified Entity. This operation does not cause a structural change, or affect the value of the component. For the purposes of EntityQuery matching, an entity with a disabled component will behave as if it does not have that component.
