I was wondering, is there a way in Jira to make a templated case with pre-set subtasks. So we can choose a certain project type or task type and it automatically creates certain subtasks

There's two questions here.

For "template projects", you could write an add-on that provides a project template and embed code in that to automatically create a set of issues.

For "template issues", you could find or write an add-on that provides a post-function that can create issues, and tag it into the create issue process (I'd do it in script runner, but there are a number of add-ons in the market place that might be easier if you don't want to do the scripts)

Ok, decide where in your process you want the issues to be created ("create" from what you've said I think), go to edit the workflow and find the "create" transition.  On there, add a post-function and select the scripted functions.  There is a built-in "create subtask" script you can use there!

I think you need to look at what I said before in your system.  You'll find a place to write your script when you do that.
