Hi guys, I need help with animation playing whenever UI button in pause menu is clicked in Unity 3D, that is, when left-click of a mouse is cliked, the character in the game plays attack animation but the animation also plays when I click resume button again with left-click of the mouse in pause menu. The question is how is it possible to ensure that attack animation is not played after I click resume button. The similar problem happens when the player enters a trigger there appears a UI panel containing buttons and when one of those buttons are clicked again attack animation is played and I do not want to let that happen. Down below is th code I am using:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class PauseMenu : MonoBehaviour
{

    public static bool IsPaused = false;
    public GameObject pauseMenuUI;
    public GameObject Player;

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {
        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape))
        {
          
            if (IsPaused)
            {
                Resume();
            }
            else
            {
                Pause();
            }
        }
        
        
           
        
    }
    public void Resume()
    {
        pauseMenuUI.SetActive(false);
        Time.timeScale = 1f;
        IsPaused = false;
       

    }

    void Pause()
    {
        pauseMenuUI.SetActive(true);
        Time.timeScale = 0f;
        IsPaused = true;
       
    }

  

    public void QuitGame()
    {

    }

    public void MainMenu()
    {
        Application.Quit();
    }
}

I tried to use setrigger and resettrigger
