Need to change an icon process to be not pixel set.

I am using the old system of naming icon states from older versions of byond where they name the state by cords like "0,0","1,0","0,1". I made a process to take these state names and replace the parts to put the image back together in game.

mob/proc/MonsterIcon()
    var/icon/I
    I = src.icon
    var/list/states = icon_states(I)
    if("0,0" in states)
        for(var/x=0, x<4, x++)
            for(var/y=0, y<10, y++)
                if("[x],[y]" in states)
                    var/obj/O = new()
                    O.icon = I
                    O.icon_state = "[x],[y]"
                    O.pixel_x = x*32
                    O.pixel_y = y*32
                    O.layer = src.layer
                    src.overlays += O
        src.icon_state = "0,0"


With this code I am limited by the pixel offset and anything that goes past 128 pixels either shows in the wrong location or doesn't show at all. Is there a way to use a small process like this? I have over 300 mobs that use this same process and I would like not have to do anything to them. Just to be able to use a small process like this to put mobs together.
