I think, the crucial misunderstanding in the above thread is the following:

I think it is important to understand, that tinc (unlike OpenVPN, for example)
does not provide any network configuration details for you. It just creates a
network interface and deals with packets, that flow into or out of this
interface.
Everything else (configuring IP addresses and routing) needs to be done by you
in the scripts (tinc-(up|down), subnet-(up|down), ...).

For your case I guess, that the following script "subnet-up" could be
sufficient:

 #!/bin/sh
 ip route add "$SUBNET" dev "$INTERFACE"

("subnet-down" should do the opposite)

Cheers,
Lars
