The state pattern is a commonly used pattern that helps to encapsulate different portions of logic and make the transitions between using the different pieces of logic seamless. This pattern is used in Unity's animation machine's, but it can be used for even more purposes to help make your code more maintainable in the long run. This is based of the state pattern in Bob Nystrom's Game Programming Patterns.
