I have a wood deck that has been enclosed. Want to cover 2×6 wood floor decking with 12×12 ceramic tile. What type sub-flooring should I use over the wood deck?

1/2 inch hardiboard. But depends what kinda shape the decking is in? cupping? Might have to do some modifying to get it level
There's a lot of "if's" here. But to answer your question directly, I would add a layer of 3/4 ply, then a layer of 1/4" hardie. Or use Ditra over 3/4" ply.
