anim.SetBool not working?,Anim.setbool not working?

Question

This is my first time making a game using unity or C# so it could be an easy fix but, as said in the title i cannot figure out how to set the animation bool to true. Here is my code public void hit()

 {
 if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.RightControl))
 {
         anim.SetBool("chop", 1);
 }
 else
 {
         anim.SetBool("chop", 0);
 }
 }

This code is meant to trigger the attack animation for my character but the bool remains false.,This is my first time making a game using unity or C# so it could be an easy fix but, as said in the title i cannot figure out how to set the animation bool to true. Here is my code public void hit()

First of all I would recommend to check if the if-statement is working.

 if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.RightControl))
      {
              Debug.Log("key clicked -- chop = true");
              anim.SetBool("chop", 1);
      }

Then the value is a boolean. So to just be sure please replace the number 1 and 0 with true and false.

Next question: Does you have set the reference object of 'aim' in the inspector or by script? I think you know it, but for safety: 1. You can set the animator public:

 public Animator anim;

you can set the reference by script:

 private Animator anim;
                     
     void Start(){
        anim = gameObject.GetComponent<Animator>();
        Debug.Log(anim);
     }

I hope some of my advices helped. Happy coding ;-)

I've got the same problem and it doesn't work for weird reasons. I just assigned 1 to the "temp" parameter and when I print it in the next line it still says 0. It's super simple code! just three lines! I can't even find out what's the problem
