Animation copy

Question

So hi there, currently working on mobile-game (indie game) of my own, doing it solo(!) hehe, now, I've got a problem, when I create a new scene, I attach a prefab for it, (All I need to change each scene I create is the background, the character and the animations after I add the prefab). so I got 3 objects that needs to move a diffrent way each scene, but when I change the animation(s), it's completly changes that animation on the diffrent scene as well, exp: I change to X of an object to move from 100 to 200 in level 7, but when I apply it, it applys to level 6 as well. Now, what I tried to do is to go to my unity project in my files explorer, copy and paste to another folder the animations data (copy from level 7 animations files to level 8 animations file), and then I just delete from the object his animator, and apply the new animator I copied, then changed the X value to something else, then I checked on the other scene, it still changed the X value on the other scene as well... It's really hard work to create new animator + animations every time I want to create a new level... Could you give me some advice please? :) Would really appreciate it (!), Johny

Guys, I probably didn't explain myself well, I got 3 objects, (5 objects in level 50+ but NVM for now), they need to move a certain way, It needs to move a certain way for example the first object from the left need to move -20 in Z, then after that move 5 in X, and then back 20 in Z. I use animation to do that, and I add some valus as well, like after the Z moved back 20, I added that "Object's ready" bool in animator set to true for example. Now, my question is, how can I copy it (the animations), to another scene without changing the original one? for example: I need in level 7 for it to move -25 Z then 10 X then 25 Z, but how can I change the animation so it stays 20 Z in level 6? Can I prefab the animations? Prefab the objects themself? 'cause what I tried to do is to copy the animations+animator data, changed it's name, put it in another folder but still, what ever I do in animation level 7 affects level 6. Please, I hope you can help me ASAP I wish to publish my game already, and trust me, It'd be sooo much faster&easier with a method that I can copy animation instead of creating animator X 3 + animations X3 for each object(!) (18 things to do) every level I create that's insanely slow and hard work. Thanks for your help I REALLY appreciate it! :) @ConcanoPayno @dan_wipf @misher

what is your animation realy about? is it a complex animation ? or just about moving the object on the x axis?

Not really complex, just shuffle like shuffle cards, there's 3 positions, right,middle, and left. the cards should shuffle the certain way I decide, like the right one move Z axis then a little to the right (X axis) then back to the same Z it was originally, but I want the other 2 objects to move a diffrent way, I mean like shuffle them so the player should pick the right card after I shuffled them.

ok so the shuffle animation will stay always the same? just if you give out the cards the position and rotation maybe of the layed out cards have changed?
