Alien kids

They won’t register as being half-alien, I don’t think. The game only seems to recognise full alien or non-alien. If they’re full alien, they will have been born with a different outfit to human sim babies, plus if they were born in the hospital, you should have ended up with the alien crib. In my experience, if a sim has an alien baby through woohoo rather than abduction, the babies won’t register as being alien and will only have a sim form, not an alien one as well. Best way to tell whether that is the case is when they age into a toddler and you go into CAS.

At least they'll be able to do the secret alien handshake with each other.

Only one parent is alien, so it was up to chance. It’s not guaranteed the children would be a pure alien having access to all the powers

I've never really thought about this deeply before, but it seems to me that I've never had a pure alien baby from a human and an alien woohooing, rather than alien pollination technique. Could be a coincidence.

I do however find it strange that they have normal skin tone instead of alien skins. I have never had this in my game, the halflings have always had alien skin.

Could this be affected by a mod, perhaps? I don't play with mods, but I *think* mccc should be able to help with getting alien babies for females.

I play vanilla and I've had half aliens with human skin tones. It seems to me that if the mother's an alien, the halflings have alien skin tones, but if the mother is human and the father's an alien, they'll have human skin tones. Could be another coincidence though. It's not like I produce half alien babies on a regular basis.

I've been playing primarily alien main household since Get To Work came out and it's honestly pretty random. I don't know if there is a trick to get a full alien baby short of an abduction. Kerrigan has given birth to full alien, human with alien skin tone, and normal human babies on about an equal level. This is Kerrigan's latest daughter Alanna. She's human. Before that she gave birth to blue skin alien twins who have some pretty intense high pitched voices!

They're teens now and all they can do is the secret alien handshake. Their alien dad died of old age recently.

Maybe have one of them find their own alien partner and the odds for a full alien go up? Since they are half and their partner would be full alien.

Since there are 4 of them, I will experiment! LOL

Update - I did have my half alien have a baby with a full alien. We have half alien kid.

My sims half alien sibling had twins with full alien and both were born aliens. So I got my alien babies lol

I went to cas and they didn't have an alien form. They were through woohoo with alien sim and no alien crib. Boo...lol I thought there was a chance.

Now I have 4 toddlers lol.

Agreed, if they are registered by the game as being "half" alien then they should have limited alien interactions, even if that status is only registered in code and not observable to the player. I do however find it strange that they have normal skin tone instead of alien skins. I have never had this in my game, the halflings have always had alien skin.
