Oh and dont mind the coding im sure its not good i am just rly bothered by the fact that animation wont play.

I think its attack slam animation you are looking for.

 

[mogulkhan1Axe]

Ive tried everything , naming it correctly and through code still not working

Have you tried not using triggers and just put attack slam or slam in the Art - Animation Names in the ability located at Object Editor?

 

[PurgeandFire]

It is because you are using "Unit - Move instantly to Point". That function does three things:
(1) Checks if the destination is pathable. If it isn't pathable, it'll choose a nearby pathable point.
(2) Orders the unit to "Stop" (this interrupts animations)
(3) Moves the unit to the target location.

The (2) part is what messes up your animation. The fix is to use JASS with SetUnitX and SetUnitY. The drawback with those two functions is that they don't check pathing. So you'll need to use a system to check for pathing (otherwise your unit might run through walls, destructables, water, etc.) Here is one: Check Walkability.

The other issue is that the unit will be able to have orders while he is being moved, and that can bug some things out. You may want to consider pausing him (that has its own issues, but at least it will allow the animation) or stunning him for the duration of the movement.

Ok. Purge already saved the day. His post is the answer.
