It's not code I've ever looked at. Hagis might know as he has contributed code to Freon too.

All the code is left on the package so it's there to read & suggest improvements

Most of the pickup classes are removed or replaced when tam is initialised, but i can't recall which class this was.
It will probably be in one of the parent classes, like teamgamebase or teamarenamaster

it's been a (long) while when I looked at this,. in 3spn I think it uses some of the player start nodes or something to pick the places where the pickups will be - or I might be completely wrong,.

 I can say fo sure it's in 3psn as I remember looking at the code, the pickups are designed to be random though mostly they aren't as random as they might have been intended,. we had a thought to make the number of pickups configurable - didn't but it is possible
