I have run the Veins/sumo "hello world" example successfully, now I am digging into its code so I can get some basics before writing my own scenario, the problem that I can't find where is the code responsible for creating the nodes (cars) and managing their mobility (initial position...)? thanks in advance.
The Veins default example use the SUMO flow to insert the cars in the scenario, as you can see here, where the cars follow the route0. Start on the edge "-39539626" and goes to the edge "-5445204#2" and going on. SUMO also can work with trips and route (manually created or by randomTrips.py) and stop point, read more here
