I have copied an animation from one rig to another via ATOM
When I save this scene and reload or reference it comes in extrmely broken
Any thoughts?

From the image, it looks to me like it's working on some nodes and not others, so that seems to me like either a slight difference in the hierarchy or the name of some nodes. If it was referenced in, is the namespace the same? Haven't used ATOM a ton, and it's been a while, but those can be the most likely culprits from my experience.

agreed,  Is there only 1 of the characters referenced in the scene? 
by any chance are their clashing node names on the controls.. ( this will confuse referencing often)
also, it sort of looks like maybe there were some set driven keys that might have gotten overwritten with some off values.

It's a bit of a black box of a rig...there are set deiven keys, constraints, and possibly switching attributes that are buried.
I tried being really careful with name-spaces, and went round the houses a couple of times and Atom wasn't solving well.

I managed to do the transfer with studio library.  
It's great.  It can manage working across name spaces, copying anim, chaining anim and has a built in pose library function...10/10 will probably become a tool I lean on in the future.

It reminded me of a short I made years back.
