HL bots are usually written in C++, however many are actually C-style C++ (i.e., use no classes)
bots for some other games (like Quake 2 or the official bot in Quake 3) are usually written in C.

If you want to do a HL bot, you can download the HPB bot source code at http://planethalflife.com/botman and take a look at it.

you probably can't do HL bots in pure C, but not knowing C++ is okay for doing HL bots.

(I've moved this to the "Bot Coding" area.)
