Clip-path animation not working for the second time

I'm trying to build a expanded menu using jQuery and css animations, so far the animations runs smothly the first time but the second time they're played they dont work.
I've seen people doing a similar menu using javascript classes but I need to keep this simple because this code will be maintened by people that don't know much about js
$('#button').on('click',function(){
if(!$('.menu').hasClass('stay')){
$('.menu').removeClass('close')
$('.menu').addClass('open')
setTimeout(function(){
$('.menu').addClass('stay')
$('.menu').removeClass('open')
},1000)
}else{
$('.menu').removeClass('stay')
$('.menu').addClass('close')
}
});
*{
font-family: monospace;
}
.menu{
background-color: gray;
color: white;
width: min-content;
padding: .5rem;
clip-path: circle(10% at 22px 22px);
}
ul{
list-style-type: none;
font-size: large;
font-weigth: 800;
padding: 1rem;
}
li{
border-bottom: solid 1px white;
padding-top: .4rem;
padding-bottom: .4rem;
cursor: pointer;
}
button{
border: solid 1px white;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 2rem;
border-radius: 100%;
background-color: gray;
color: white;
}
.open{
animation: 1s circle-path;
}
.stay{
clip-path: circle(100%);
}
.close{
animation: 1s circle-path reverse;
}
#keyframes circle-path {
100% { clip-path: circle(100%); }
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="menu">
<button id="button">+</button>
<ul>
<li>Chat</li>
<li>Video</li>
<li>Minuta</li>
</ul>
</div>

You don't need to use an animation to open and close the menu. Just toggle a class. You can simplify your code like this:
$('#button').on('click', function() {
$('.menu').toggleClass('active')
});
* {
font-family: monospace;
}
.menu {
background-color: gray;
color: white;
width: min-content;
padding: .5rem;
clip-path: circle(10% at 22px 22px);
transition: 1s clip-path;
}
.active {
clip-path: circle(100%);
}
ul {
list-style-type: none;
font-size: large;
font-weigth: 800;
padding: 1rem;
}
li {
border-bottom: solid 1px white;
padding-top: .4rem;
padding-bottom: .4rem;
cursor: pointer;
}
button {
border: solid 1px white;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 2rem;
border-radius: 100%;
background-color: gray;
color: white;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="menu">
<button id="button">+</button>
<ul>
<li>Chat</li>
<li>Video</li>
<li>Minuta</li>
</ul>
</div>

Why won't my accordion close all the way?

I'm making some accordion FAQ questions. When I add padding around the answer portion, my accordion won't close all the way. When I remove the padding, the accordion works fine. The problem is that I want the padding.
As stated before, my accordion works perfectly fine when padding is removed. When the padding is added back, the collapsed answer still shows the first few lines of text in the answer.
(The accordion in question is the last entry on the page, headed with "0002.")

<h2>world-building</h2>
<h3>context clues</h3>
Before you get started exploring this new world, it’s helpful to keep in mind a few things for context! (It might even help you answer your own questions, who knows?) The first bit of info you’ll need is that electricity and all other forms of energy
are obsolete; instead, the world runs on magic energy. That leads into point two, which is that supernatural, magic creatures are no longer monsters under the bed, or creatures in the shadow; they live open, public lives.<br><br> Since
this is a cyberpunk site, it stands to reason that technology is wildly more advanced than what we have now. It’s no so advanced that interstellar travel exists, but it’s so much farther ahead that paper (and privacy, in a lot of ways) is a thing
of the past. Every person on the planet is in some way connected to the Global Communications Lattice (or GCL) for short, and everything on the planet runs through it. As far as specific pieces of technology go, that’s largely up to you, your
ideas, and genre standards.<br>
<Br> It never hurts to ask an admin or run an idea by us before executing an idea, though!
<button class="accordion"><h3>What's the primary language spoken in City 0023? What about the rest of the world?</h3></button>
<div class="panel">English has become the primary language of most of the world, but thanks to the ease of information access, every language (even dead languages) can be learned now! Linguistic diversity not only still exists in this world, but is flourishing;
most people can claim some form of bilingualism. English, French, and Chinese are the top three languages spoken in City 0023.</div>

To answer your original question, as you discovered, as long as that .panel div has top and bottom padding, it will have an intrinsic minimum height which is why it wasn't closing all the way.
The easiest way I can think of to achieve the desired result without changing too much of your existing code is to nest the text inside a div that is a child of .panel and move the padding property (and optionally the line-height property as well) to the nested element (which I called .panel__content -- you can call it whatever you want).
div.panel {
margin:10px 30px 20px 30px;
background:rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
display:block;
max-height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
transition: 0.2s ease-out;
}
.panel__content {
padding:40px;
line-height: 170%;
}
<div class="panel">

Working JSFidddle example
Some side notes:
I would also highly recommend that you validate your HTML and CSS, as you have a number of validation errors currently. Best way to do that is to paste your code into W3C's online validators:
HTML Validator:
https://validator.w3.org/#validate_by_input
CSS Validator:
https://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/#validate_by_input
You might not need to add div to your .panel selector to achieve the same result. All things being equal, it's a best practice to have selectors be as short as possible.
You might not need to set .panel to display:block; as div's have this property value by default.

Try adding
box-sizing: border-box;
On your panel. This should make it so the padding is a part of height. You may have to adjust other values if that shifts things slightly.
Otherwise, you could set padding top and bottom to 0 when closed and transition those values as well, when collapsing.

max-height property overrides the height property but the padding top and bottom value will added to the height when css is getting compiled and value of height well be 80px
so set the padding to
div.panel { padding: 0 40px }
and change your script to
var acc = document.getElementsByClassName("accordion");
var i;
for (i = 0; i < acc.length; i++) {
acc[i].addEventListener("click", function() {
this.classList.toggle("active");
var panel = this.nextElementSibling;
if (panel.style.maxHeight){
panel.style.maxHeight = null;
panel.style.paddingTop = 0;
panel.style.paddingBottom = 0
} else {
panel.style.maxHeight = panel.scrollHeight + "px";
panel.style.paddingTop = null;
panel.style.paddingBottom = null
}
})
}

Child grows only in one direction (downward) due to parent padding. Text moves down on hover

My code (2nd demo) and the working code (1st demo) are literally the same, but I think what's happening with the hover effect in my code is that the parent element's padding is respected, and the child is not allowed to grow upward in height. Why doesn't this happen with the 1st demo (orange background), and how can I fix mine? Note that the borders are added for debugging.
Edit: I have found the cause. It is due to the float:left in .menu a.
Can anyone explain why? I know float:left places the element along the left side of the container, but why does this create the undesired effect below? I can't come up with an explanation for why one implies the other.

Just because float:left specify the element placed along the left side of the container.

Create accordions into accordions

I have some requests because i have trouble with accordion and panel. I would like that my accordion contain other accordion. But i have have some trouble with the size of my mainpage because the div did not align under each other. Otherwise, in my job we can't use js so i would like code only in html and css.
I post my code :
HTML :
<button class = "accordion">Fat Section</button>
<div class = "panel">
<button class = "accordion"</button>
<div class='panel'>
<p>Statut:</p>
</div>
</div>
button.accordion {
background-color:#ADD8E6;
color: #444;
cursor: pointer;
padding: 18px;
width: 50%;
text-align: left;
border: none;
outline: none;
transition: 0.4s;
display: block;}
button.accordion.active, button.accordion:hover {
background-color: #B0E0E6;
div.panel {
padding: 0 18 px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color:white;
transition: max-height 0.2s ease-out;
transform: translateY(-50%);
display:none;}
div.accordion
{
position: relative;
display: block;
}
button.accordion:after {
content: '\02795'; /* Unicode character for "plus" sign (+) */
font-size: 13px;
color: #777;
margin-left: 85%;}
button.accordion.active:after {
content: "\2796"; /* Unicode character for "minus" sign (-) */

CSS sidebar footer detection

I need the sidebar to not go over the footer nav. I can't figure out how to edit the css for this. Here's a preview, with html and css. So what I'm looking for is a "collision" off the footer border-top so the sidebar can interact with it.

Adding position: relative to the wrapper and positioning #buttons with position: absolute is a way to fix this. Do keep in mind that you need to know the exact distance between the top and bottom of the #wrap and #buttons.
That said there are probably other solutions as well.
#wrap {
position: relative;
width: 760px;
margin: auto;
overflow: hidden;
}
#buttons {
position: absolute;
right: 0px;
top: 110px;
bottom: 95px;
width: 155px;
border-left: 2px solid #FFA500;
border-right: 2px solid #FFA500;
font-family: Terminal, Arial, Times New Roman;
background: linear-gradient(#700000, #250000);
}

use margin-bottom: -648px; padding-bottom: 648px; for #buttons instead of padding-bottom: 2000px; margin-bottom: -2000px; This will fix for your current view.But if you want it dynamic at every page you may need to use javascript to detect the screen height and determine the padding-bottom and margin-bottom.hope it will help you.

like this?
http://codepen.io/mmp1992/pen/bnrvw
#buttons {
height:645px;
}
and remove the padding and margin.
