So, I have an old Mac Pro and 2 Monitors, and i'm trying to run the same game on each monster so 2 people can play the same game, but on different windows at once. So basically I'm trying to use 2 mice and 2 keyboards AND 2 Monitors. All I need to do now is assign a keyboard to each monitor, but I don't know how to do that.
Mac Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
No.
MacOS supports typing from two keyboard, alternate letters coming from different keyboard would be interspersed.
Mac OS is a Multiple-User system, BUT: MacOS has exactly ONE User Interface active at one time. There is no provision for two at once.
The Mac system isn't like a dual-control drivers ed car that two can alternately control
while navigating through more difficult urban terrain. Or the older trash truck with extra
controls and steering 'on the other side.' Some basic airplanes were like that, too.
And the feature set you suggest hasn't existed in any Mac; although impaired persons
have been able to utilize dual mouse, dual keyboard, and other input to one Mac. Even
a few who've used a USB mouse, as a foot-switch. A KVM switch allows separate use
of dual controls and displays.
Then, there are gaming controls...

Good luck & happy trails! 🙂

You don't.
You are describing a Time-Sharing system, which MacOS is not.
So, the Keyboards are the problem, right?
Ok, but I’m not going to be using two users, just the same. But ok, thanks!
