Would you like to have properly working hybrids in game?
* By Hybrid I mean: half normal sim half occult or half occult half other occult mixes. (For example: half vampire half mermaid)
Feel free to share your ideas too, how you would like them to be for example.

As for how I’d want hybrids to be, I’d want them to be just as they are currently but without the glitches!

Vampilien: Vampire mermaids with an alien form. The disguise has access to dark mode vampire resources. They get all alien powers, are not harmed by sunlight while disguised, and get a few vampire abilities related to controlling other sims. No perk tree, but they can still drink blood and turn other sims into vampires. Gain positive moodlets at night.
Mermaliens: All the powers and abilities of mermaids and aliens. Their true form is an alien with a mermaid tail. Extra flammable because why not. Get sick from eating fish, as their species can't handle them

I prefer that too, but it doesn't work properly all the time (at least not in my game). Also I would like to have properly working 50/50 hybrids too, personally I don't need any more complex hybrids than that.
Yes, that's why it would be nice if they were supported.

If cars, then it's a yes from me.
If supernaturals, then I don't care because I don't play with them
I mean supernaturals, but cars would be nice for sure!
I like the idea of Hybrids, but I think they could get out of hand really fast. I know that's an issue at times in TTRPG's where the GM doesn't keep a rein on such things. Working first generation hybrids then becomes a demand by some for second gen hybrids (Alien/Vampire/Mermaid/Witch) and as the programming for first generation hybrids is already glitchy, second gen is bound to be a mess.
I guess I'd just like them to clean up hybrids now with some consistent rule (Baby gets power set A or B, but has some CAS options from the other... maybe?) that they can regularly apply going forward.
Yes, some rules needs to be there I think, otherwise its gonna be too much.
Would be maybe better to have only option to have 50/50 mix, and not mix of 4. For example:
Parent 1 (Mermaid/Vampire) + Parent 2 (Normal sim/Alien)
Children of them would only get one of half from their parents, and be for example Mermaid/Alien, Vampire/Alien or so..
Or they could just be just one of those, like it's a dominant trait or something.
I know that that's not how genetics work in real life though, but that could be a way to make those possible.. maybe.
Also like that idea, that CAS options would be there and some set powers/skills/traits.
The point with this is that they don't work properly now and are not supported, but it would be nice if they would make change in that at some point.
(I hope any of this makes sense, English is not my native language and I'm still learning)

Totally agree! Better to make it work or don't make it possible at all.

Vampire-Aliens
Vampire-Mermaids
Alien-Mermaids
The above hybrids already can occur in the game without cheats. The main reason why they are buggy is because they have 3 forms rather than 2. This is what makes their CAS glitch up, for example. All they would need to do to fix them would be to enable a third slot in CAS for that third form. They’d also need to make the likelihood of getting them through trying for a baby higher.
Of course, it would get very complicated if we started asking for Vampire-Alien-Mermaids and so forth. So I can understand not implementing those. But, as has already been suggested, they could work the genetics so that, say, when a vampire-alien and a alien-mermaid have a child it can be either a vampire-mermaid, a vampire-alien or an alien-mermaid.

The reason why your vampire-mermaid children didn’t look like their parents is not because they are hybrids but because there was a bug (which has only just been fixed) which meant that children with one or more mermaid parents would not inherit their parents’ looks.
Yes, unfortunately with vampire-mermaid hybrids you cannot see their vampire points and select powers for them since that part of the UI is missing for them. You can get around that problem by using cheats to give them the various vampire powers. You can find the cheats here:

Before using a cheat to give them a certain power (e.g. sun resistance) they need to be at the correct level (e.g. master vampire) but you can also use cheats to level them up.
