Help with animation mod transitions

[Sihnar]

I'm making a combat animation mod. The animations work fine, but some of the transitions are too snappy. For example when going from 2hm_walkforward to 2hm_idle, the model skips into place instead of smoothly transitioning. But when going from 2hm_idle to 2hm_walkforward, it works fine.

I've seen a few mods where the transitions are smoother. Even in vanilla some animations transition pretty smoothly (such as 2hm_walkforward to 2hm_idle.) Any idea how to fix this?
