## TIC Support
ENiGMA½ supports FidoNet-Style TIC file attachments by mapping TIC areas to local file areas.
ENiGMA½ supports FidoNet-Style TIC file attachments by mapping external TIC area tags to local file areas.

You then need to configure the mapping between TIC areas you want to carry, and the file base area and storage tag for them to be tossed to. Optionally you can also add hashtags to the tossed files to assist users in searching for files:
Valid `tic` members:
| Item | Required | Description |
|--------|---------------|------------------|
| `password` | :-1: | TIC packet password, if required |
| `uploadedBy` | :-1: | Sets the "uploaded by" field for TIC attachments, for example "AgoraNet TIC" |
| `allowReplace` | :-1: | Set to `true` to allow TIC attachments to replace each other. This is especially handy for things like weekly node list attachments |
Next, we need to configure the mapping between TIC areas you want to carry, and the file base area (and, optionally, specific storage tag) for them to be tossed to. You can also add hashtags to the tossed files to assist users in searching for files:
```hjson
ticAreas: {

Multiple TIC areas can be mapped to a single file base area.
> :information_source: Note that in the example above `agn_node` represents the **external** network area tag, usually represented in all caps. In this case, `AGN_NODE`.
Valid `ticAreas` members under a given node mapping are as follows:
| Item | Required | Description |
|--------|---------------|------------------|
| `areaTag` | :+1: | Specifies the local areaTag in which to place TIC attachments |
| `storageTag` | :-1: | Optionally, set a specific storageTag. If not set, the default for this area will be used. |
| `hashTags` | :-1: | One or more optional hash tags to assign TIC attachments in this area. |
💡 Multiple TIC areas can be mapped to a single file base area.
