Why is my animation (animator) delayed ?

Question

I made a game and when you die the score moves from top right to the middle of the screen using an animation. When you press Retry I reverse the animation by by setting the a speed parameter which is used as a speed multiplier in AnimationState.

While the parameter switches value (from 1.0 to -1.0 and or the other way around) the animation has a delay. I also noticed the longer you wait pressing retry, the longer it'll take for the animation to start. I do have to mention the animation doesn't have a transition to an idle state, so it probably means the animation time is moving > 1.0. I tried setting normalizedTime, but this didn't work either.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Okay I fixed it. Apparently I had to use ForceStateNormalizedTime() as normalizedTime was going above 1.0f and below 0.0f.

for any that this can help, play animation forwards and backwards

 // go forwards
 mainAnimator.SetFloat ("Direction", 1);
 mainAnimator.PlayInFixedTime("AnimName",-1,0 ); 
 
  //go backwards
 mainAnimator.SetFloat ("Direction", -1);
 mainAnimator.PlayInFixedTime(("AnimName",-1,1);

Hi, I am having the same proble, could you share how you used ForceStateNormalizedTime() in your class? Edit: NVM i figured it out, thanks for the answer guys, both of you

How did you used ForceStateNormalizedTime(), I am having the same trouble, and I didn't get it.
