Updating sprite X msb

Slack bastard time. Recs for updating $d010 if I've got an eight bit x-position in my object table, but all my sprites are offset a constant number of pixels to the right? Current draft is this:
	clc
	lda mobX,x
	adc xoffset
	sta $d000,y
	lda #0
	adc #255
	eor #255
	eor $d010
	and hibit,x
	eor $d010
	sta $d010

(x is both object ID and sprite number (I'll change how I index mobX later), y is double the sprite number. hibit contains 2**i)

..and now
	clc
	lda mobX,x
	adc xofse
	sta $d000,y
	lda $d010
	ora hibit,x
	bcs *+5
	eor hibit,x
	sta $d010

not tested, lazy solution below:

clc
lda mobx,x
adc xoffset
sta $d000,y
bcs set ; hibit doesn't count at overflow

lda hibit,y
beq clear

set
lda $d010
ora table,y
bne done

clear
lda table,y
eor #$ff
and $d010

done
sta $d010


table .byte 128,128,64,64,32,32,16,16,8,8,4,4,2,2,1,1

Good idea indexing hibit with y instead of x.

I'm not going to need to bash the sprite colours for present purposes, possibly not even sprite definition, so I may be able to avoid placing sprite number in a register altogether.

The rest looks sound, and looks like it sits between my OP and my reply to myself in speed..

When you update all sprites in one loop, you may update $d010 as follows
ldx #$07
loop:
ldy table,x  ;y contains 2 times x
clc
lda mobX,x
adc xofse
sta $d000,y
rol $d010   ;shift in a 0 or 1
dex
bpl loop

It's faster to unroll the code:

lda mobX
clc
adc xoffset
sta $d000
ror xhi
lda mobX+1
clc
adc xoffset
sta $d002
ror xhi

and so on

lda xhi
sta $d010

Nice! Yes, and you can use zeropage for xhi :-)

Yes, but it's only one cycle faster.

Ah yes, I should probably have mentioned that my use case is a multiplexer component; for the first eight sprites I will indeed shift the bits in one by one.

I wonder if that multiplexer reuses the sprites in order, so that for every call y will increased by 2 and start with 0 again? Not sure if that can make a difference, just thinking...
I guess offset is variable and not available when mobX is generated?
And are you already in need of rastertime, or is it just about making this a little more pretty?
	clc
	lda mobX,x
	adc xoffset
	sta $d000,y
	lda $d010
	bcc clear
	ora hibit,y
	bcs store
clear	and hibit+1,y
store	sta $d010
hibit	!by 1, 255-1, 2, 255-2, 4, 255-4...

8 pieces of code to jump to, all other stuff is done outside multiplexer. Y holds the current list index.

    lax (sprite_index_lo),y
    lda sprite_y,x
    sta $d001
    lda sprite_x,x
    sta $d000
    lda sprite_a,x
    sta screen+$3f8
    cmp sprite_x_msb,x	;$00 if cleared, $ff if set
    lda $d010
    and #%11111110
    bcs +
    ora #%00000001
+   sta $d010
    lda sprite_c,x
    sta $d027
