I want to scan one bond of my system of interest, while simultaneously computing the forces at each step. The "force" keyword which is suggested by Gaussian is not compatible with the "scan" jobtype... . A suggested workaround I discovered would be to use the "opt=(modredundant)" jobtype. However, this invokes an energy minimization at each scan step, which is undesirable since I want to apply this to larger systems further down the line. I have a attached a minimal example input file.
