line shifted to right

If you type 2 or more chars at the same time, one char will be overwrite, the second char will be insert...

If you type fast this happens and so the rest of the textline is shifted to right...

I ran into this too. I am using Overtype 0.2.0 with VS Code 1.31.1.

I was trying to replace a line containing:

--------------

with =s, so I enabled overtype and held down the = key, but some characters were inserted instead. A higher keyboard repeat setting probably exacerbates this.

This happened to me too.

When you hold a key to overwrite a sequence, some of chars are inserted instead of overwritten. Also cursor jumps randomly forward and backward when such inserts occur.
