I was curious about the item spawning favoring certain players so I did some tests on it. I just put one player on one edge of FD and and the other player on the other end and set food to medium. I did two control tests (after the first one I decided 2 min wasn't enough), a percent test, a stock test, and then I went for broke with an extreme in stock and percent difference. Here's the data I came up with:
Control 2 min p1 right p2 left
Left:
Left quarter:11
Left center: 1
Right center: 1
Right quarter: 1111
Right: 1
Control 4 min p1 left side at 0%, p2 right side at 0%
Left:11
Left quarter:111
Left center:111
Right center:11
Right quarter:1111111
Right:1
4 min P1 left side at 100% p2 right side
Left:1
Left quarter:1111111
Left center:111
Right center:1111
Right quarter:111
Right:
4 min p1 left side down 2 stocks at 0%, p2 right side at 0%
Left:1111
Left quarter:111111
Left center:111111
Right center:11
Right quarter:11
Right:
4 min p1 right side down 5 stocks at 300%, p2 left side at 0%
Left:111
Left quarter:11111111
Left center:11
Right center:11
Right quarter:11
Right:111
The 1's represent a food falling in that area ("quarter" being the area roughly a quarter of the way in on that side and "left/right" being very close to that edge). During the stock test, I was sure there was a connection, but then when I set player 1 to be losing by 5 stocks and at 300%, the spawns seemed to favor player 2 more. Anyway, make of it what you will but I don't see a clear correlation between item spawns and who is winning/losing.
tl;dr I don't believe item spawns favor anyone
