    How would you go about, with a click of a button, switching between two characters in a first-person game? Like switching between an operator and a drone in Rainbow Six Siege?

    At the most basic level all you need is for each character to have a control script and a camera.

    When you press the button, you disable the control script and camera on one character, and enable the control script and camera on the other.

    How would you switch between them, though?
