Documentation Error

I am trying to follow the supplied documentation that comes with TGB, however I have run into a problem with the Fish Demo tutorial :
"
We need to add a call to both the "left" and "right" responses. This call will set the fish's Y position in a random number between the top of the level and just above the ground. Make your function look like this.
"
....As you can see this is supposed to make the fish reach the world limits, then come back across the screen at a different location on the Y axis. The code is identical apart from one white line was removed. I did a search on the forums, but can't find what to do.
Anyone have any ideas?
-Thanks in advance.

function FishClass::onWorldLimit(%this, %mode, %limit)
{
switch$ (%limit)

case "left":
%this.setLinearVelocityX(20);
%this.setFlipX(false);
case "right":
%this.setLinearVelocityX(-20);
%this.setFlipX(%flipX)(true);
}

Thanks Chris Labombard. This is the code that is missing from the documentation, I can carry on now.

Thanks for posting this issue with the docs... I just fixed that in our internal version :) That one slipped by me, if you have any further issues feel free to post them.
