What Is happening is I press the key and sometimes it will trigger the animation some times it will not, Sometimes it will trigger the animation and quickly go back to the idle, sometimes it will play the jumping animation in a loop over and over again and sometimes it will work completely fine. IT'S DRIVING ME BONKERS! lol Please Help Me.

Did you make sure "has exit time" is unchecked?

If I keep hitting the key over and over and over again the animation will finally play, it's almost like my keyboard isn't registering the keys but I know it's not my Keyboard because it's brand new lol it's gotta b something with my code or the anim controller

Is t$$anonymous$$s happening with all of the animations or only specific ones?

I ran into a similar problem recently. I was checking for a keypress in FixedUpdate(), and the keypress was not being registered. Move the Input checks to Update and it should work.

FixedUpdate gets called by the game engine every physics step, w$$anonymous$$ch is independent of a time step and does not complete at the same rate. Since Input.GetKeyDown is only true for one frame, it is unlikely that that frame would land wit$$anonymous$$n a physics step and trigger the animation.
