The issue seems to be with the timing and the animator controller reacts to incoming messages (e.g. triggers, bool changes, float changes, etc.). When I changed it so the required animation was connected to "any state" in the Animation Controller everything worked as expected. I've no idea why...
I am try to use B.D. to trigger an animation if certain conditions are met within Behavior Designer. My first thought was to use Set Trigger but it does not seem to work.
My Setup:
1. I have an Animator Controller attached to my character with a transition set to transition if a trigger is set...
