# Objective
- Fixes#5850
## Solution
- As described in the issue, added a `get_entity` method on `Commands` that returns an `Option<EntityCommands>`
## Changelog
- Added the new method with a simple doc test
- I have re-used `get_entity` in `entity`, similarly to how `get_single` is used in `single` while additionally preserving the error message
- Add `#[inline]` to both functions
Entities that have commands queued to despawn system will still return commands when `get_entity` is called but that is representative of the fact that the entity is still around until those commands are flushed.
A potential `contains_entity` could also be added in this PR if desired, that would effectively be replacing Entities.contains but may be more discoverable if this is a common use case.
