Description:

Checks whether the tested item is Null.
Which null type the item has to be equal to depends on the type of object tested:

Note: A test via == does not work, because, for example, objNull is not equal to anything, not even to itself.

+locationNull could be confusing when testing destinationTask :
+if a task is created, taskDestination returns an array working as position : _mytask_distance = (taskDestination (currentTask player)) distance player;
+When task completed Hint format ["%1", taskDestination (currentTask player)] returns <null> while !isnull taskdestination.. leads to an error.
+correct test : _destination_task = taskDestination (currentTask player); if (!isNil "_destination_tsk") then {...
