Create service per pod in statefulset

I have a statefulset app which can have any number of replicas. The pods produced should be able to communicate to external comptures. Those pods must act statefully when clients communicate with them.
I tried to create headless service and nodeport services, but it still has only one service to communicate with and also couldn't make it to communicate externally.
How can I make it allocate external ip and port per each port?

The above answer is incorrect. You can use pod name labels, cf: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68123751/kubernetes-service-for-a-subset-of-statefulset-pods

For example:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: my-sts-1
spec:
  ...
  selector:
    statefulset.kubernetes.io/pod-name: my-sts-1
  ...

You will have to manually create the services when you scale your statefulset up or down. Alternatively, you could create a helm chart or a CRD + Operator.
