Is there any form to make parachutes open when jump of the plane? I need it for a second world war mod. I see some mods of statics parachutes but no one serve because they need moderns planes. Any suggestion?

I used this code with a plane named JumpPlane to give that WW2 para jump feel:
{
	_unit = _x select 0;
	if (local _unit) then {
		moveOut _unit;
		sleep 0.2;
		_chute = createVehicle ["NonSteerable_Parachute_F", getPos _unit, [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
		_unit moveinDriver _chute;
	};
	sleep 0.2;
} forEach fullCrew [JumpPlane, "cargo"];

Instead of automatically opening the parachutes (which is unreliable), it creates a parachute vehicle (parachutes are vehicles in arma) and moves the unit's inside them.
Sometimes I like to think as I started the whole "earplugs" thing.

Here is how you can do it, make a script called para_jump.sqf in your mission folder, and put this code inside it:
{
	_unit = _x select 0;
	moveOut _unit;
	sleep 0.2;
	_chute = createVehicle ["NonSteerable_Parachute_F", getPos _unit, [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
	_unit moveinDriver _chute;
	sleep 0.2;
} forEach fullCrew [_this select 0, "cargo"];

Then put this code in the init of the plane you're using:
this addAction ["Initiate Jump", "para_jump.sqf"];

This will add an action to the plane that will make everyone in the cargo seats jump out, and it will give them parachutes after they jump. It has small time intervals so nothing collides with each other.
